At a Glance
In a rural Cambodian village, Samir was shocked to see a mother bathe her baby with laundry detergent.
The world disposes of up to 250 million pieces of soap every year. Yet in developing countries like Cambodia, a shortage of basic hygiene products, like bar soap, is the primary cause of infant mortality rates due to preventable diseases like diarrhea.
Learning of this issue, Samir founded Eco-Soap Bank to save lives by enhancing hygiene, protecting the environment from soap waste pollution, and improving the local economy.
Providing Accessibility to Hygiene as a Basic Human Right
Deliver 3.6 Million Bars of Soap
According to the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the UNHCR, there are at least one million refugees that needs access to basic hygiene products, such as soap. Together with Samir and Eco-Soap Bank, the plan is to produce 3.6 million bars or recycled soap to these refugee camps in Bangladesh and Tanzania.
Reducing Soap Waste-to-Landfill
Using the funds raised, Eco-Soap Bank is able to maximize their capacity and recycle a further 360,000+ kilograms of soap waste, preventing it from entering landfills and polluting the environment. With that, they will also be able to produce 12,000,000± kilograms of recycled soap every year! enabling them
