The list of brands that care about our world and our environment is small. I mean, those select few companies, organizations, or small businesses that actually give a shit. So, when there’s an opportunity to highlight a brand that is making a push for a better world, for all of us, it deserves to be called out. Today, I have two for you.

Allow me to introduce CleanHub. A nonprofit that diligently works behind the scenes and in front of the curtain to eliminate the growing plastic problem in our oceans. Not only through the collection of ocean-bound plastic and waste, but also a genuine movement towards the slowdown of plastic use through the support of sustainable brands. CleanHub collects waste, stopping open burning, dumping, and pollution in waves. But it also focuses on providing safe, dignified jobs that offer fair pay and excellent development opportunities.

You may be thinking, “cool, why are we highlighting CleanHub, specifically?” Well, outside of the fact that it’s downright awesome, and their mission is incredible, they’ve also teamed up with a variety of sustainable brands, including Vuori, Veganz, and the other brand we’re talking about today — Sud Scrub.

CleanHub X Sud Scrub: What’s the rub?

Sud Scrub offers a curated selection of bath and body products, namely to help keep you clean and in healthier ways. Its body scrubbers, for example, are made from antimicrobial food-grade silicone, which is safe to recycle. Each scrubber lasts for an entire year, and is proven to resist 99.99% of odor-causing bacteria, as well as 90% of nasty fungi that would grow on its surface.

If you want proof of how well it all works, be sure to take a look at the experiment that pits a Sud Scrub against a generic loofah. You can guess which one comes out on top.

But here’s why this is all amazing. The CleanHub X Sud Scrub collaboration gets you a reliable scrubber for $30. Better yet, 100% of those profits go directly to CleanHub to help fund plastic waste cleanup. It’s actually working, too. It’s not a pipe dream and the money is going towards a legitimate cause. CleanHub has collected over 6,000,000 kilograms of plastic waste, and partnered with over 500 brands. Those brands help reduce plastic overall, so that CleanHub’s efforts to collect plastic are a net positive — they collect more than the partnered brands use.

CleanHub, and by proxy Sud Scrub — and the more than 500 other partnered brands — are all working toward developing a healthier, balanced environment that supports us all. That’s a mission I can get behind, especially since I want to make sure my kids have a decent world to live in.

Awesome! How do I support CleanHub and Sud Scrub?

That’s the best part! It’s super easy. Just buy a Sud Scrub or two and you’re in. Again, 100% of the profits will go to CleanHub and its continued efforts to rid the oceans of dangerous plastic. You can buy through Sud Scrub directly, Amazon, Target, and TikTok Shop. Take your pick.

It’s also a great way to celebrate Earth Day, which is April 22.
