OAKLAND, Calif., Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Clorox Company (NYSE: CLX) today announced its expanded partnership with Realize the Dream, a national service initiative honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s message of connecting people through service. The new Clorox initiative, Every Hour Counts, is a multi-year commitment to mobilize thousands of employees globally toward Realize the Dream's ambitious goal of 100 million volunteer hours by 2029, coinciding with Dr. King's 100th birthday.
"This effort reflects Clorox's long-standing history of giving back and our deep commitment to supporting local communities," said Chief Diversity and Social Impact Officer Shanique Bonelli-Moore.

When the communities we serve are well and thriving, Clorox is stronger too."

The expanded partnership extends this impact, engaging Clorox teammates across the globe in meaningful service that brings the company's purpose to life in communities where they live and work.
