Clean the World efforts recently expanded to include Disney resorts and hotels in California and Hawaii, and the contributions are impressive. In just two years time, Disney has collected a whopping 53 tons of soap, which breaks down into 565,509 bars. Additionally, more than 33 tons of bottled amenities, such as shampoo and lotion, have been given to the cause.

The Disney soaps go global (from Haiti to India) and local, where they are put to use in homeless and domestic abuse shelters.

In addition to its preventive health benefits, this innovative recycling effort literally is making the world a cleaner place by reducing waste. Since participating in Clean the World, Disney has diverted nearly 87 tons of hotel waste from landfills.

Hey! Those are the cool old style toiletries! Lucky kids! This is a great effort on WDW's part. We give our soaps to local charities, but WDW is so much larger and can reach further.

Isn't that really what it's all about? Everyone helping one another to help themselves?
