personal Care & Hygiene
Wednesday, 11:30AM – 2:00PM
Everyday essentials and toiletries offered weekly
Many of our guests experience the hardship of homelessness and are in need of personal care products. Some of the most basic items are often difficult to obtain. Our team provides on-site access to essential goods, including soap, deodorant, toothpaste, dry socks, and undergarments.
The personal care team has developed an efficient and trauma-informed ordering and fulfillment system. Maintaining our guests’ privacy and dignity is a critical aspect of our program.
Community Hygiene Truck
Broad Street Love also distributes personal care items across the city through our Community Hygiene Truck, developed in partnership with Trinity Health Mid-Atlantic. Several local organizations, including the Starbucks Foundation and Life Science Cares, also support the efforts.
The truck provides these items free of charge, and connects individuals to other resources and services. The program helps those experiencing deep poverty and homelessness have increased access to these essential goods and services.
