SALUD. VIDA. FUTURO!
A SOAP RECYCLING AND
HEALTHCARE INITIATIVE
Here at Prospera we use soap recycling as a means of reducing illness and addressing poverty in rural Panama. We develop and support projects that promote health education, family stability, community development and better healthcare access.
WHAT IS SOAP RECYCLING?
In a 2016 study of U.S. hotels alone, an average of 2.6 millions bars of partial or unused bars of soap were thrown away. Imagine how many bars of soap are thrown out in the 15.7 million hotel rooms worldwide? Soap recycling diverts a lifesaving recource from the trash and gives it a purpose improving quality and longevity of life for those in need.
Healthcare doesn’t happen by accident! It also doesn’t have to be expensive.
