  • Imagine not being able to take a shower for say... a year...?!? If you're a backpacker, you know how it feels for even just a week. Well, hundreds of thousands of our fellow citizens, probably millions around the world, are permanently in this predicament for lack of a roof over their heads, for a gazillion of reasons. Not being able to shower brings endless consequences for both the health and the morale. You'd think that if we can remote-control rovers on the surface of Mars, we probably can do something to address this dire public health crisis. Well, YES, we can. And it doesn't take monumental budgets either. In this video by the Respectful Revolution Project, you'll meet a gentleman named Charles, his team of volunteers, and some mind-blowingly generous businesses in Chico, CA who made it all happen on a budget... a BUDGET OF LOVE.

    What you have done to bring the tradesman together, creating something new in a niche market is pretty awesome in itself.

    Any city should have one of these.
    Homelessness is a business for the government. Millions of dollars made.
    This would be nice in Washington, Oregon, and more parts fo California.

    This is amazing love ❤️, I pray for more of these to be distributed everywhere. I live in Texas and I see a need everywhere for this as I was a single mother of four and several times when my water pipe froze or my water heater broke I would have to take my kids to the State Park and take showers so I know how it feels like to be down.

    Keep doing the homeless & the public a good service. Speaking for myself...i was homeless for 6 yrs. If i had to use a woodsy stream that's what ya gotta use to stay fresh & clean. The water's free, bar of soap from the dollarstore.

    Hi,
    City Church in Fairfield has a shower ministry called "Strike Force". I am looking to possibly build one 4 to 6 stall portable shower for a new program in Bakersfield and rebuild one we are currently using here. Looking for plans if you could help us out.

    How do you get a water supply? I have been wanting to implement something like this in my community.

    Homelessness is a business now period. They take 20% minumum for their aid. Funded by cash and some charity. Social services and medical services are paid to aid. We also now there are free humanitarians that volunteer and giove things; and ask for nothing
