WHO KNEW There is a Gift That Gives Twice?
About a year ago I discovered a company that sells toilet paper made from your choice of all recycled paper or bamboo. The company ships the toilet paper to one's home and for about $50 one can receive 48 rolls of paper. All packaging is recyclable. What is more, 50% of the profits of this company go to building toilets around the world for those who do not have them. 2.4 billion people don't have access to a toilet. That's roughly 40% of the global population and means that around 289,000 children under five die every year from diarrheal diseases caused by poor water and sanitation. That's almost 800 children per day, or one child every two minutes.
