With the aim of saving lives by promoting hygiene, ’Soap for Hope’ was officially launched in 2013. Since then, the project has recovered over 750 tonnes of soap generated by nearly 250 hotels, produced 6,2 million reconstituted soap bars and benefited over 400,000 people in local communities across 22 countries.
Since being introduced in Viet Nam in August 2015, the project has distributed thousands of soap bars to poor children and communities in many disadvantaged areas, from the northern mountainous provinces of Ha Giang, Yen Bai and Quang Ninh to Ho Chi Minh City.
The idea for Soap for Hope came to Stefan Phang, director for Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility of Sealed Air Corporation, when he was looking at the amount of waste that a five-star hotel generates.
“A typical 400-room hotel generates 3.5 tonnes of solid soap waste per annum," says Phang who has worked with many hotels in the world.
