The Right To Shower
Bringing showers and dignity to the streets
We started The Right To Shower because we believe access to cleanliness is a fundamental human right.
Homeless Americans lack access to everyday necessities and services — including showers. This makes it all too easy for them to be “othered”, rejected, and unseen by society, compromising their sense of dignity and their chance to feel included in the community.
We believe no one should be denied access to cleanliness. Free showers should be made accessible to those living on the streets - because one shower can contribute to improving health & well-being and restoring one’s dignity in their community.
Right now, 550,000 people are experiencing homelessness and have limited or no access to the everyday services many of us take for granted, including a shower.
We’ve crafted a range of products with the absolute best ingredients, sourced responsibly and formulated with care. We’re using the profits to help ensure that everyone has access to a shower.
