Hello Dare 2 Care Crusaders:
We continue to be so grateful for the those that have joined us in our mission to bring dignity and reverence to the homeless in our community. In just less than four years we have been able to provide thousands of showers to our neighbors and expanded to include the Loads of Love Laundry Project. If you would like to come out on one of our runs to volunteer or just to see what it is all about please check out our Calendar page and text or email Kate to let her know you are coming, 561-574-9603 or kate@showerthepeople.us.
If you interested in helping us continue our mission work through fundraisers, please visit the Volunteer page and submit your email address or email admin@showerthepeople.us. We are in the process of forming a planning committee for upcoming events.
Thank you again for all of your support! Off to shower and laundry services!
Tim & Kate

After more than 20 years battling alcoholism, my childhood best friend and brother from another mother passed away as a result of this addiction. There were several good years dispersed throughout that time frame, many ups and of course many downs.
Tony was a special person, so often a very selfless person. In fact I dare say I cant recall any time he wasn’t a kind and giving person. In his prime he could have been a stunt double for Burt Reynolds, good looking, affable and always a gentleman. An infectious and inviting smile, Tony was loved by many. He was always willing to give and hesitant to take. In fact for 2 years he gave me his time and effort, night and day trying to keep my dream alive in the restaurant business. He refused to accept a paycheck time and time again.
In later years he found himself either near homeless or at times he was in fact homeless. Even in these conditions he never lost the essence of his nature. He would offer to help those around him with the mindset, “what do you need” even when he was without. During a recent hurricane, he refused to leave his friends’ side even though he was offered refuge from the storm. Imagine that, so dedicated to his friends, he would forsake his own safety.
In Tony’s honor, I would like to emulate his kindness and selflessness. Towards that endeavor, I am starting a program to offer showers and clothing to whomever may need it in our community. We have purchased a four stall shower trailer and truck.
This project is going to require a substantial financial commitment and with your help we can reach our goals quickly and begin to honor, respect, and revere those in our community who could use our help.
