A not-so-nice fact: more than half of schools in developing countries don’t have access to water and sanitation facilities (ie. toilets and hand-washing). And that alone is one of the top barriers to girls getting an education. Clean water and accessible loos are directly linked to economic opportunities and social empowerment for women and girls - not to mention their ongoing health and safety - which is just one reason our mission is to ensure everyone in the world has access to them in our lifetime. We’re confident it’s a problem we can solve if we work together. Read more about our big goals and impact over here: https://lnkd.in/gtyhWWbr

About us
We are one of the fastest-growing eCommerce businesses in Australia (and now the US and UK too!). More than that, we’re one of the country’s fastest-growing social businesses. Who Gives a Crap sells beautiful, forest friendly toilet paper, paper towels and tissues and we donate 50% of our profits to help build toilets for those in need. As much as we love toilet paper, the reason we’re in business is the impact we’re having on the world—To date, Who Gives A Crap has donated over $8 million Aussie dollars to our charity partners, WaterAid, Sanergy, Lwala Community Alliance and Shining Hope For Communities, iDE and WaterSHED. The more innovative the solutions our partners can unlock, the quicker we can help build toilets for the 2 billion people who don’t have them. We have a fully distributed business with all team members working remotely (i.e. from home or a co-working space) most of the time. We currently operate in six time zones with team members across four continents... and we’re just getting started. We believe a diversity of perspectives and experiences is what makes a strong team. The stronger our team, the closer we are to our mission – toilets and clean water for all. So come join us! We're looking for people of all genders, races, ethnicities, orientations, abilities and disabilities to come sit at our table. The only thing we're a stickler on is species – you have to be a person.

Need to get rid of a stinker in your life? We want to do your dirty work! On February 13th (aka World Dump Day) we'll be sitting down, sharpening our pencils and writing the break-up letters you've been putting off. Because we know a thing or two about dumping.

We know, providing toilets and clean water isn't a sexy topic. But that's not going to stop us from trying. Because to us, nothing is hotter than ensuring everyone has access to WASH – water, sanitation and hygiene. Unless you're baking a cake at the same time. That would be very *very* sexy. And here's a spicy reminder for you – we donate 50% of profits to WASH organisations all over the world. So every time your cheeky bum uses our toilet paper, you help make a difference. Now that's hot.

Our customers could have chosen any toilet paper, but they chose one that donates 50% of profits to help build toilets. We can't thank them enough. But we'll try, Love Actually style (minus the creepiness, promise). And just because it's Christmas, we thought we'd share how much they've helped us raise to date. Thanks to our amazing community, we've donated... $18,070,060 AUD, aka $12,588,342 USD, aka £9,825,422 GBP, aka €11,266,595 EUR We can't give everyone a virtual high five or hug, so for now let us say, without hope or agenda, that to us, our customers are perfect - and you can find out more about our impact over here: https://lnkd.in/gtyhWWbr
