Impact
The founder's mum, Sheryl who was a nurse, was a naturally caring person. Her generosity was always there for all to see. It was her mum who told her about the shower facility at their local hospital, for use by the homeless, or disadvantaged, to have a hot shower in safe surroundings. Her ongoing work with the local inter-church charity, HICCI, presented a second opportunity to provide lovely soaps to those who needed a helping hand.
Since her passing, Cinnamon and Clove team have carried on her legacy through ‘Sheryl’s Gift’, named in her honour. Their mission is to support the homeless, women’s shelters, and those needing a helping hand up from whatever difficult circumstances life has thrown at them.
They repurpose ‘imperfect’ soaps by shredding and mixing them into a new batch to create beautiful “confetti” soap.
The soaps are available as small, single-use pieces (and lots of them), for those who may not have the ability to carry toiletries around with them. Alternatively, nice bars of soap are also available for those who do.
The ethical gifts by the Australian Social Enterprises here tackle some big issues. Your purchase helps them work with charities who are experts in the field and they make a difference in the space of empowering and rescuing women, improving human health, reusing items that would have otherwise gone into landfill, providing work and helping people break out of the cycle of poverty.
