Happy New Year from all of us at Eco-Soap Bank. In 2025, we celebrated a milestone we’re incredibly proud of: 10 years of saving soap and saving lives. For a decade, our community has turned soap scraps into jobs, hygiene, and environmental impact. Because of you, our soapmakers have now produced more than 80 million recycled bars of soap since we began.
This year, your support helped Eco-Soap Bank:
Every one of these numbers represents real people with better access to lifesaving soap and hygiene education. It matters because the need (and the waste) is enormous. The soap industry discards an estimated 25,000 metric tons of soap scraps each year. We’re proving that “waste” can become something life-changing when it’s captured, recycled, and put back into communities that need it most.
In 2025, we kept building toward what comes next: researching and improving products like SOAPLAY, investing in systems that unlock higher production, and strengthening the partner network that makes global distribution possible. This is how we keep growing impact without losing what makes the work special: local jobs, local leadership, and soap that reaches people who might not otherwise have it.
As we step into our second decade, we’re focused on:
Thank you for your support this year. Together, we’re saving lives with soap.
