spotlight | the global soap project


from cnn online:
"derreck kayongo and his atlanta-based global soap project collect used hotel soap from across the united states. instead of ending up in landfills, the soaps are cleaned and reprocessed for shipment to impoverished nations such as haiti, uganda, kenya and swaziland."
the article details how expensive soap is in developing countries and how soap is the first line of disease prevention. i love businesses that are created because someone cared enough to notice a simple, everyday solution to a massive need that most of us overlook. find out more on their website: global soap project.
