WHY IT MATTERS
Imagine taking a shower without a towel to dry off with. Maybe you use a spare shirt instead. But if you happen to be homeless, soaking up a fresh shower with dirty clothes will rub more than just a little shine off.
A towel can be the difference between getting clean and feeling clean. Think about drying off after a hot shower with a fluffy white towel - don't we all deserve that? If you're homeless in San Francisco, you have no choice but to wait in long lines for access to showers, facilities which are often filthy and operating on very limited schedules. Help Lava Mae, a mobile shower and sanitation service for the homeless, deliver hygiene, and restore dignity, for those living on the streets of San Francisco - one shower, and one clean towel, at a time.
