Soap Drive!

Today's act of kindness/good deed was inspired by my friend Jeannie. She brought to my attention an organization called Clean The World. Their main mission is to help stop hygiene related illnesses and in some cases deaths here in the U.S. and around the world. They do this by collecting recycled and new soap and shampoo products from groups and the hospitality industry and then distributing them to impoverished and homeless communities and countries.
Being able to have proper hygiene is a big factor in staying healthy and sadly so many don't have access to it. So to help out today I have begun a soap drive. I'll be collecting just your basic bars of soap for the next couple of weeks to box up and send to Clean The World so that they can get it to people in need. To those of you reading who would like to contribute please feel free to contact me through the blog, facebook, email or phone and I'd be ever so grateful. This a great and cheap way to help out so many, so pull out your spare change and buy a bar or two of soap to give to this drive if you feel so inclined. With simple acts of kindness like this we can help end needless diseases.
