SOAP AID is a not-for-profit organisation founded in Australia with a dual humanitarian and environmental mission. The primary focus is to save and improve the lives of children in disadvantaged communities through the facilitation of improved hygiene practices. At the same time, Soap Aid aims to reduce environmental degradation by recycling and reprocessing unused soap collected from hotels.
Anganwadi workers live amongst and serve many of the poorest communities in India where they act as intermediaries between families and the government by providing essential public health and education services. We wanted to highlight this story of local people administering aid in an uplifting and matter-of-fact context. We followed Pushpa Singh through her daily routine and endeavored to create video that is honest and intimate without objectifying impoverished people.
