Who gives a crap? We do! (Part 1)

Who gives a crap? We do! (Part 1)

In our ongoing efforts to be good stewards of the planet, and ourselves, Barkwells continually seeks to improve the products we use and provide to our guests.

 

We are transitioning to Who Gives A Crap (WGAC) toilet paper in all guest accommodations. WGAC started when its founders learned that 2.3 billion people across the world don’t have access to a toilet. That’s roughly 40% of the global population and means that around 289,000 children under five die every year from diarrheal diseases caused by poor water and sanitation. That’s almost 800 children per day, or one child every two minutes.

 

Since their first production in March 2013, WGAC has donated 50% of profits to help build toilets and improve sanitation in the developing world. They have donated over $4 million US just this year! Though still growing, and now making more than just toilet paper, they always want to stay true to their roots: toilet humor and making the world a better place.
 
At Barkwells you can enjoy their 3-ply jumbo rolls of 100% recycled paper with no inks, dyes or scents. They say it’s as soft as unicorn kisses and as strong as 1000 ponies. We hope you agree!
