    Mission


    To provide reliable access to mobile showers

    and basic hygienic services

    ... for individuals without access to these essential facilities. We partner with faith-based and community organizations to bring about real change to those who need it most. To date, we have served over 500 individuals and provided them with the basic need of showering facilities.

    Our Collaboration

    with the City of New Haven

    We are proposing a collaboration with the City of New Haven – Office of Housing & Homelessness Services – to provide mobile showers to populations without access to these essential facilities. By working together, we can make an impact on the lives of those without access to basic hygienic services, as well as those who are homeless and unstably housed in the city of New Haven.

      It is great to have this for the homeless population. They do a great job at the locations in New Haven. Homeless population is starting to take advantage the showers. Staff is great.
