Keep your eyes peeled for news on the next global RUN BLUE activation.
10 - 16 october, 2022
every kilometre you run or walk = a bar of soap to a person in need
#Sweat4Soap was part of Mina Guli’s RUN BLUE journey - a year-long campaign to bring awareness to issues affecting our water in the lead-up to the 2023 UN Water Conference.
Anyone could join Mina for #Sweat4Soap and run along with her virtually from anywhere in the world. Every one kilometre pledged was a bar of soap donated to a refugee camp in need.
sign ups for #Sweat4Soap are now closed - see the final tally below
half a million bars
We had an audacious goal with Sweat4Soap: We wanted to get half a million bars of soap to people in need with the help of our partners, Eco-Soap Bank. How did we do this? By asking participants to pledge their distance for the run between 10 - 16 October.
Below you will find the list of the top three countries and territories ranked by the number of soaps they have pledged.
our final total soap count stands at
432,098
*THE 100 CLUB *
*THE 100 CLUB *
The ‘100 Club’ is our list of individuals who have pledged over 100km/mi for #Sweat4Soap, meaning each person is responsible for the donation of at least a hundred bars of soap to Cox’s Bazar.
With a goal of a million bars in total for #Sweat4Soap, we think everyone who pushes themselves to hit longer distances for more bars should be celebrated.
Names are added to the club once a day.
