Saving Lives. Enhancing Livelihoods. Reducing Waste.
Each year, millions of people lack access to proper hygiene, while hotels dispose of tons of solid soap waste. Soap For Hope™ bridges this gap by collecting used hotel soap and repurposing it through a cold-press method that requires no electricity or water. This simple process eliminates waste, improves hygiene, and creates livelihood opportunities for local communities.
The program is built on three core objectives:
By turning discarded soap into sanitary, new bars, Soap For Hope™ ensures that waste is transformed into a solution that benefits both people and the planet.
Soap For Hope™ thrives through strong partnerships with hotels, local nonprofits, and community organizations that help bring the program to life. By working together, we ensure that used soap is recovered, repurposed, and redistributed where it’s needed most.
Participating hotels reduce waste while contributing to local health and hygiene efforts. Nonprofits manage on-the-ground operations, training community members in soap reprocessing, which in turn provides economic opportunities for those in need. This shared-value approach enables sustainable impact that aligns business goals with social good.
Through collaboration and innovation, Soap For Hope™ continues to expand, proving that simple solutions can drive meaningful change when organizations, communities, and businesses work together.
Linens For Life™ repurposes hotel linens that are too worn for guests but still usable, transforming them into tote bags, clothing, and other essential items. Instead of sending these materials to landfills or incinerators, the program provides sewing training and donated equipment to individuals in need, including refugees, disaster survivors, and women escaping trafficking or domestic abuse.
By learning new skills, participants gain an opportunity to earn income through the sale of repurposed items, fostering economic independence and community resilience. Through collaboration with hotels and local organizations, Linens For Life™ creates both environmental and social impact—giving discarded textiles a second life while empowering those who need it most.
