our mission
Brandywine Soap Co. is a Chester County–based maker of small-batch, all-natural soaps crafted with local ingredients and a lot of heart. What began as a kitchen experiment turned into a mission: to create soap that’s as good for your skin as it is for the planet. Each bar reflects our community — pure ingredients, honest craftsmanship, and care for the land we share. We partner with local growers for botanicals like lavender and herbs, turning their harvests into gentle, earth-friendly bars that celebrate where we live.
Committed to the 1% Pledge
What's the 1% pledge?
The 1% Pledge is a global movement encouraging companies to give back 1% of their time, product, profit, or resources to social good. For us, that commitment means providing real soap to people who may have limited access to it.
Soap is one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent illness. Regular hand-washing helps reduce the spread of disease, protecting individuals, families, and entire communities. Access to soap also supports dignity, confidence, and the ability to participate in everyday life at work, at school, and at home.
By offering free soap, we’re investing in prevention, health, and human dignity.
It’s a small action with a powerful ripple effect. Free soap saves lives, strengthens communities, and proves that meeting basic needs can create lasting change.

Hello Everyone!
I launched Brandywine Soap Co. with a simple idea: to build something of my own that gives more than it takes.
I have been making soap for well over 15 years. It began as a way to take a more natural approach to everyday life for my family. Real soap is an essential part of health and daily care. Soap reduces illness. When made thoughtfully, it limits unnecessary chemicals and is gentler on both people and the earth. Every bar is made by hand in small batches using all natural ingredients and crafted in our local community.
Before launching Brandywine Soap Co., I built a career as a professional writer and corporate communications & marketing leader. Storytelling, service, and purpose have always mattered to me, and Brandywine Soap Co. brings those values together.
Whenever possible, I source locally, supporting nearby businesses and farms because giving back should start close to home. We are part of the 1% pledge to ensure the company gives back to the community.
After years in the corporate world, making soap feels like the right way to serve, connect with others, and make a meaningful impact.
