Soap Aid is a not-for-profit organisation founded in Australia. 

Today across the globe over 2 billion people lack adequate sanitation. As a direct result, it is estimated that 1.8 million children under the age of 5 die each year due to hygiene related illnesses.
 
This equates to 6,000 deaths each day. One of the major causes of childhood deaths is diarrhoea.
 
By the simple act of a child washing their hands with a bar of soap, we could potentially reduce the number of diarrhoea cases by over 40 per cent.
 
In an effort to prevent these needless deaths, we collect waste soap from hotels worldwide and send them to a central processing plant, where we re-process the discarded soaps and turn them back into new, useful bars of soap that will help save lives.

Soap Aid was born from a Melbourne family’s 25 year involvement in the hotel amenities supply business and their deep understanding and consciousness about their commercial impact on the environment and desire to protect the global community.
