Today, October 15, is Global Handwashing Day. A day that got started in 2008, which I never paid attention to, now has such strong meaning. Handwashing with soap and water is not only simple and inexpensive but also can dramatically reduce the number of people who get sick, including COVID-19. We are fortunate that we have easy access to clean water and soap.

A large proportion of the world population does not have access to clean water or a bar of soap. These nonprofit organizations provide soap to communities.

Learning how to wash hands the right way with these videos

With the second COVID wave arriving, the global shortage of nitrile gloves is severe. Dealing with PPE products 24/7, what I have noticed in the last two weeks in the market is worrisome.
If you need gloves to sustain your business, please secure the stock or lock the prices.
Please stop speculation, price gouging, and stockpiling. If only the needed buyers purchase gloves and use the right gloves for the required purpose, it is manageable. Consider vinyl, vinyl-nitrile-mix gloves, or latex instead of nitrile gloves for general purpose use.

Have a wonderful Handwashing Day!

A Message from Our Vice President,
Dr. Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura

Dear Friend –

I arrived in America in 1962, a young Japanese woman intent on a career in music. In the six decades since, I have overcome prejudice through Courage and Compassion to have triumphed in three fields – international Impresario, oriental medical doctor, and philanthropist.

My memoirs, my lessons learned, are now available in print in Amazon – two volumes with images and narratives of my years of experiences. I HUMBLY REQUEST YOU JOIN MY “LAUNCH TEAM.” I request you jot down a short review for use in marketing my story around the world.

The title of book is Journey of Courage and Compassion by Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura, PhD. It has two volumes. The book volume I is already live sale in www.amazon.com. You need to search my book title and author’s name in Amazon. Please download eBook (digital version) instantly at $2.99 and I will reimburse you. You can also write a review at same place. I am in a final process of completing volume II to go live sale within a week.

I hope to share with you my experiences with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Leonard Bernstein, Mother Teresa, Pavarotti, Princess Grace, etc. My life has been an interesting journey. I hope my experience will encourage the next generation to find their own.

With gratitude and compassion,

Dr Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura
