Dear soap maker,
 
A 501(c)3 non-profit organization that provides much-needed soap to the third world, "Clean the World," has asked me to mobilize the handmade soap community. The need for soap in Haiti is great.
 
Without hand washing, the broken sewers, plumbing, and toilets in Haiti will lead to diarrhea-related bacterial infections, which sadly effect children the most and lead to 5 million deaths annually. You can help!
 
Send your cold process, hot process, or melt-and-pour soap to:
 
Clean The World
3564 Avalon Park Blvd East, Suite #1-210
Orlando, FL 32828
 
The soaps do not need to be labeled in any kind of way (ingredients, type of soap, etc.). Please include a brief note with your contact information explaining that you've donated handmade soap and whether you'd like a receipt for your taxes.
 
Our contact at Clean the World is co-founder and managing director Paul Till. He can be contacted at 407-574-8353 or info@cleantheworld.org (although he is very swamped at the moment!)
 
Learn more about Clean the World on my blog (my blog is still in its beta phase--pardon my dust):
http://thesoapblog.com/2010/01/12/clean-the-world-sends-donated-soap-to-third-world.aspx
 
or from Clean the World's website:
http://www.cleantheworld.org/
 
PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO OTHER SOAP MAKERS! Thank you.
