The Clorox Co., parent company of CloroxPro™, has joined the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks to honor nine Atlanta Public School (APS) teachers for their exemplary contributions throughout the school year.

As part of the collaborative “Year of the Teacher” initiative, Clorox and the Hawks donated more than US$10,000 of product and support for all nine teachers. Beginning last year and running through earlier this month, the two organizations accepted nominations of APS teachers from the public. Then, a panel selected teachers for the honor, which included Clorox cleaning supplies for their schools, two tickets to a Hawks home game, in-game recognition as the game’s honorary co-captains, and a $500 gift card for school supplies. 

“It’s been an honor to recognize local teachers all season with our partners, the Atlanta Hawks,” said Tad Kittredge, Clorox vice president and general manager. “They are the heroes who give so much, especially in guiding students through the uncertainty of the last two years, and it’s a small way we can show our appreciation and lend support.”
