Sustainable Products Nothing to Sneeze At

We’re always looking at ways to contribute to a healthier and more sustainable world. We recently purchased new facial tissues from Who Gives A Crap because they help in a few different ways.

First, all of their products are shipped without any plastic or unnecessary packaging.

Second, their products are made with more sustainable materials (for example, their toilet paper is made out of 100% recycled paper, and their facial tissues are made from 100% bamboo).

Third, 50% of their profits are donated to non-profit organizations that provide toilets to countries with major sanitation needs. Roughly 40% of the world’s population does not have access to a toilet which can contribute to major health problems for kids and adults alike.

Who Gives a Crap is helping to deal with that problem, and we’re happy to contribute by purchasing their products. For more info visit: https://us.whogivesacrap.org/
