Our Mission
With no overhead, no agenda and pure giving, we provides basic human necessities to people living in downtown Los Angeles and other homeless encampment around Los Angeles. We go to the outskirts of Skid Row* where the elderly and disabled need help. We are currently working on serving other stable encampments throughout Southern California.
We fill in the public welfare gaps where other services providers leave off. We drive directly to where the needy have been displaced. We help to improve the hygiene and living conditions of those homeless Americans who have no access to public toilets, bathing facilities, drinking fountains or permanent covered shelters. Not one drinking fountain exists on public streets. Until recently, very fuew bathrooms were present to serve the 12,000 people living in the 20 blocks designated as Skid Row. Since the pandemic, more portable toilets have popped up, but overall, the poor use buckets as bathrooms. We provide them hygiene, body wipes, feminine products to help.
From our car windows, we hand out simple essentials: Water, wipes, socks, snacks, masks, tarps, blankets.
We aim to help as many as possible, as efficiently as possible, to bring a little relief and dignity to those who need it most. We can't solve the homeless epidemic. But you never know when small gestures will encourage those down-trodden to find more permanent solutions.
*Skid Row is a designated 54-block area in downtown Los Angeles that has become synonymous with homelessness and poverty. As of 2022, the area contains the largest stable population (about 4,200–8,000) of homeless in the U.S. and has been known for its condensed un-housed population since the 1930s.
