We believed that everyone deserves to be clean. Life for the houseless in Los Angeles is difficult and uncomfortable. Amongst their struggles is finding a way to take care of their basic hygiene needs. We’re on a mission to change that by providing a clean, safe place for our houseless neighbors to shower.
Power of a Shower is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that focuses on providing our houseless neighbors and those in need with access to a place to take care of their personal hygiene. Donated and retired commercial vehicles are transformed into mobile showers where our guests will have a place to use the restroom, take a shower, wash their hair and put on some clean clothes. All while listening to music, getting a haircut and color and other much needed added services.
How can I help?
Anyone can make a big difference in small ways.
Acknowledge. Simply making eye contact and even smiling at those you pass on the street is a good first step. It makes a difference when people are seen, rather than ignored.
