Clean the World continues on a frenetic pace with soap and bottled amenities distributions in the United States, Canada and countries around the world. And we are expecting these numbers to grow as we enter the holiday “giving” season where charitable donations are in steep demand.
Here’s what we’ve been able to accomplish with our global distribution partners and local organizations in just the past two weeks:
– Our friends at Sysco Guest Supply helped process nearly 200,000 bars of Clean the World soap for World Vision, which picked up 34 pallets of soap for global distribution (1,080 lbs. per pallet / Total: 35,640 lbs. of soap). An additional 22 pallets of soaps and bottled amenities will be picked up from our Las Vegas recycling operations center just prior to Thanksgiving Day.
– Children International picked up 20 pallets of soap for distribution to impoverished families in Guatemala.
– Harvest Time International picked up 12 pallets of bottled amenities for distribution in the United States and Latin America.
– Farzine Foundation for Africa is picking up five pallets of soap and bottled amenities for school children and people with disabilities in Sierra Leone.
On the domestic front, Clean the World is working with a number of organizations to provide comfort and better hygiene during the holidays. Past and upcoming distributions include:
– Seminole Families in Transition (Florida) hosted an event in which Clean the World distributed 320 hygiene kits (soaps, bottled amenities) to homeless students and families .
– Kids Closet picked up 2,500 hygiene supplies for school-aged children in the Orlando, Fla.-area.
– The Salvation Army of Central Florida will host its annual Thanksgiving meal for people in need, which will feature the distribution of 5,980 hygiene kits for those in need.
Keep in mind, this is just some of what we are doing in the next few days and weeks. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter to learn more about our domestic and foreign distributions of soaps and bottled amenities. We want you with us as we fulfill our mission to advance a global hygiene revolution to stop the spread of diseases and save lives with soap.
