What is a Community Bar?

A Community Bar is a way for us to give back to Canadian not-for-profits and charities that support a vision for a toxin-free world. At the beginning of the year we choose two main partners who will share the proceeds from the program, and collect $1 from each Community Bar sold.

Those bars add up: our 2021 Community Bar donations totalled $44,925.

Our main 2022 partners are Nature Conservancy Canada and Spirit North.

Learn more about our partners below.

This Month's Community Bar

Care for dry, sensitive skin with October’s limited edition Community Bar, Cinnamon Oats. It’s made using plenty of colloidal oatmeal — oat grain that’s been ground into a fine powder — making this a great choice for skin that doesn’t react well to cooler weather. Plus it contains plenty of organic shea butter to deeply hydrate and moisturize. A final touch of warming, comforting cinnamon gives this soap a spicy-sweet, autumnal feel. Lather up and enjoy.
