Soapbox: A company that will change the world with quality

Founder, David Simnick, a true believer in Giving Tuesday's mission; unleashing the power of people/organizations to transform communities.

Soapbox will join this year’s Giving Tuesday movement by doubling its donations of soap that will reach vulnerable communities in the United States and around the world. The company is also offering 15% off all items purchased through its website with the code GIVE2020. Since it was founded in 2010, for every product sold, Soapbox donates a bar of soap to someone in need. Thanks to its customers, Soapbox will donate 10 million bars of soap in 2020 alone!

The unique “Hope Code” on the back of all products is linked to an aid project that the donations support. Simply enter the Hope Code online to see photos from that project and learn more about the work being done.

This holiday season, give a gift that matters. Top picks from Soapbox that will make the perfect stocking stuffers, Hanukkah presents or hostess gifts are the following:
