All proceeds from Second Hand Hope go to the Registered Canadian Charity Soap for Hope Canada.

Soap for Hope Canada's misson is to change lives by providing hope and dignity through hygiene. They provide access to essential hygiene products to vulnerable people, from Children to Seniors, to low-income Families, Refugees, Indigenous Communities, Homeless people, and people in Evacuation Centers for fires and floods. 

Soap for Hope Canada primarily works with the hotel industry, collecting gently used hygiene products, linens, and lost & found items. They repurpose these items and distribute them to Community Facilities or sell them in our thrift store to serve people in need.
