Have you ever felt helpless in a dire situation and wanted to help, but didn't know how? Me too.  After seeing the mass destruction in the wake of Hurricane Helene my little southern heart had all I could handle of feeling helpless. My love language is doing so I had to find something to do. I put my servant's heart to work, and I created the Restoring "Hope" soap bar. 
 
I chose the word Hope because it is one of the most powerful feelings we can give someone after such a tragedy as this. The two essential oils used in this formula were also purposely chosen. Frankincense symbolizes worship & prayer, something we can all afford to give our fellow Americans from the comfort of our homes. Myrrh symbolizes sacrifice and suffering, which is exactly what these people have been enduring. My goal for the Restoring "Hope" bar is to continue to raise funds and awareness for these good people. Once the news crews pull out of these areas, and the social media buzz dies down, I fear that these people will be forgotten and left to struggle through the holiday season. These people I speak of are some of my very own customers, their families, friends, and their entire communities. 
 
 
The Restoring "Hope" Bars are sold for $8.99 each. All proceeds, ($5 per bar) minus the cost to make these bars ($3.99 each to make),  will be donated DIRECTLY to those affected by Hurricane Helene, Local vetted churches with feet on the ground in those areas & their communities, and lastly the Amazon wish list of The Cajun Navy who has been doing an amazing job. I will post weekly updates of the total sales and donations on my social media platforms for all to follow along. 
 
Our Restoring "Hope" Bars are made with 100% grass-fed beef tallow, organic coconut oil, olive oil, castor oil, distilled water, caustic soda, Moroccan clay powder, mica powder, frankincense and myrrh pure essential oils.
