Fights the spread of COVID-19 in the United States.
L’Occitane en Provence, a global manufacturer and distributor of natural beauty and well-being products, donated nearly 200,000 hygiene products to Clean the World Foundation. The donation included much needed hygiene supplies, including: 74,000 (50ml) bottles of shampoo, 40,000 (50ml) bottles of conditioner, 12,000 (50ml) bottles of shower gel, 33,000 (50ml) bottles of body lotion and 27,400 (50g + 75g) bars of soap.
The donated 27,400 bars of soap will supply Clean the World’s recycled soap production and the thousands of donated hygiene supplies will be included in hygiene kits that will be dispersed immediately to shelters all over the country.
Assisting Those in Need
Hygiene supplies are not federally subsidized. With over 500,000 homeless and thousands more needing government assistance, there is a large population without access to soap amidst the spreading Coronavirus. Toiletries are one of the most requested items at shelters where people are at greater risk of contracting hygiene related illnesses. Clean the World is working around the clock to provide critical hygiene essentials to the vulnerable people who need them.
“It is inspiring to see companies like L’Occitane en Provence so generously respond in such a critical time of need. Unfortunately, not all people have ready access to hygiene essentials. It is the mission of Clean the World to serve these populations with life-saving soap and other hygiene products,” said Sam Stephens, executive director of Clean the World Foundation. “We are tremendously grateful for L’Occitane’s support and are excited to increase our response for those people who are increasingly at risk as the number of COVID-19 cases continues to climb.”
“Our hearts go out to all those who are suffering and affected by this pandemic. In this climate, it is critical to support our community. At L’Occitane en Provence, we believe in relentless optimism and are committed to finding ways to make a difference,” commented Ashley Arbuckle, vice president of brand marketing and wholesale at L’Occitane en Provence. “We are happy to support in this time of need by donating essential hygiene products to help during this difficult time.”
