Cleveland Clinic and The Clorox Company have established the Clorox Public Health Research Fund. Bolstered by a $1 million donation from Clorox, the fund will further Cleveland Clinic’s exploration of innovative research ideas, advance new training and education opportunities, and launch promising healthcare innovations.
Rooted in Cleveland Clinic’s 100 years of medical discovery and Clorox’s century-long legacy in health and wellness, the goals of the Clorox Public Health Research Fund include initiating promising health technology, investigating new research approaches, and designing healthcare solutions.
Initially, the organizations will prioritize research and discovery focused on the COVID-19 virus, the organizations said.
Research supported by the fund will inform the development of tomorrow’s virus-fighting cleaners and other health and safety products, along with practices and protocols.
