Eco-Soap Bank founder and CEO Samir Lakhani joins Aaron to discuss his humanitarian and environmental nonprofit organization that recycles and sanitizes used hotel soap for distribution to people in need in the developing world. Samir discusses how a trip to Cambodia—involving a rickety bicycle, a Hawaiian shirt, and a lot of hope—served as his inspiration and his mission to support livelihoods and provide free education to disadvantaged women. Eco-Soap Bank is doubling down on its commitment to providing soap to organizations in developing countries during COVID-19 to mitigate the spread of the virus and promote public health.
