Clean the World Foundation Benfit Dinner

I just got back from the "Clean the World Foundation" benefit dinner tonight. As many of you may know, Clean the World Foundation is my personal platform as Miss Teen Earth United States. Watch the video to hear about how we got paired up!

I can honestly say that this is just such a truly amazing foundation. We are really doing such big things. To think that we started in only February of this year, and we have grown so much! We have already completed 2 trips to Haiti and will be going back early in the coming year. In total we have collected 250 TONS of soap. 250 TONS! That is insane! We are making such big progress but of course we still need help. It is so important to us to get out in the world and save lives using recycled soap.

Think about this: currently, soap is the ONLY product recycled that can actually SAVE HUMAN LIVES. Not only that, but we can save 3.5 million lives a year! It is so simple.. hotels throw about thousands of tons of soap each day left behind by guests. Instead, hotels partner with Clean the World and join our recycling program. We then cleanse the soap and prepare it to be shipped out to impoverished nations where the soap is quite literally a medicinal blessing.

How can you help?
Easy. Anyone can get involved! Start a soap drive in your community. Spread the word on facebook, twitter, or through email.

More importantly, visit the website: www.cleantheworld.org

I cannot explain how much I have been truly touched to see how I have been able to make a difference in the lives of others. It is honestly such a wonderful feeling and I really encourage everyone to get involved in some way. We can change history; we can save lives!!!


With Love,
