Monthly Raise the Bar Report – Dec. 2015
Turning Soap into Green
Burundian soap makers reinvesting in community
Hello Pacha Soap Supporters!
Our team finds great joy in providing one of the most unique, beautiful, and quality soaps on the market. It is truly a joy to work with all of you in different capacities. We are delighted to create a wonderful product at our soap shop in Hastings, Nebraska, and provide that product to thousands of consumers all across the United States. That, in itself, is worth a lot and brings happiness to all involved. What we have to share with you today only adds to the joy of a wonderful smelling bar of soap.
As most of you are aware, we have the privilege of implementing a sustainable buy-one, give-one soap model in Burundi, Africa, where for every bar of soap we sell, we are able to employ men and women to produce another bar of soap that is given to children in the very same communities! This model has been proving a mushroom effect and we are happy to share this special report from our friend and partner Gilbert with, Imagine Burundi-Terimbere. With the production of the give-away bars, the community of Kamakara is able to invest in other ventures to help their people flourish. Thank YOU all for helping make this happen. You are changing lives in a very real way!
With love,
Andrew and Abi
