Description
Soap and bottled amenities are life-saving items when it comes to the matter of public hygiene. However, these items are not regularly obtainable for underprivileged families and members of community.
The Institute collaborates with Soap Cycling (再皂福) for a community service event of recycling and redistributing soap and bottled amenities. At this event, volunteers will have the opportunity to help with sorting, scrapping/draining and recycling soap/bottle amenities to Soap Cycling. Your help in the recycling of soaps and bottle amenities donated by hotels in Hong Kong also promotes environmental protection. All members, graduates and students are welcome to join.
Let’s join this meaningful volunteer service and show our care to underprivileged families.
About Soap Cycling:
Soap Cycling is a non-profit organization working with the hospitality industry to collect, process and recycle slightly used soap bars and bottled amenities. These life-saving items are then distributed to underprivileged families in Hong Kong and disadvantaged communities around the world, particularly Asia.
