Recycling Hotel Soap For World Health
Written by Cathy on September 22, 2009 – 8:50 pm -Welcome back!
I have always wondered what happens to all the leftover slivers of hotel soap, the half bottles of shampoo and other bath items. Because it’s such a waste, I usually bring it home and continue to use it until it’s gone. Why waste? What I didn’t know is that an organization Clean the World takes leftover soap and shampoo and donates it to the needy. Another organization called Global Soap Project also sends soap overseas. To keep it local donate to your local shelter.
I Just Gotta Tell Ya:
- 93,349 Hotels and Motels in the USA alone.
- The average hotel has 200 rooms and 4 Million Rooms per night Globally
- Soap is crucial in combating diarrhea- with over 2 million people die from diarrhea every year.
- Millions of bars of soap and slivers land up on landfills and our groundwater
What can you do?
- Donate any unused soaps to the above organizations or your local shelter.
