I learned of a non-profit yesterday called "Clean The World". They collect used soap and shampoo from hotels, clean them, repackage the bars and ship them to poor countries like Haiti. It's a win/win situation...everyone knows that hand washing with soap helps prevent disease, and by repurposing this soap, it's less garbage in our landfills.
With the recent disaster in Haiti, the need for soap is even more essential. This weekend, I'm packing up a big box of soap to ship to Florida, and then it goes on to Haiti. I am thrilled and feel so blessed to be able to help in some small way.
Check out this youtube video to see more about "Clean The World" and their efforts in Haiti. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7LzNOXKi0A&feature=player_embedded
