“One day I passed a woman in the street and she was very dirty and basically crying,and heard her say that she would never be clean.But I as wondering what her opportunities were to actually get clean,” Sandoval said.
Sandoval was inspired to start Lava Mae. The project has already been welcomed with open arms in the city.The Transportation Agency has donated one bus for the cause and is willing to donate three more if the project succeeds.Sandoval hopes the first bus will be able to hit the road in May this year.The Public Commission has also agreed to let the buses plug into fire hydrants(消防龙头)around the city if Lava Ma pays for the water.
One of Lava Ma’s biggest supporters is Bevan Dufty, the director of Housing Opportunity, Partnerships & Engagement under the mayor of San Francisco.“For people who are unhoused,access to showers is very difficult.Shower buses are something that could potentially be deployed (部署in response to an emergency, it is relevant to all San Franciscans," Dufty said.“Doniece has done an incredible job as a citizen who cares about helping the poor.Wvery excited to see Lava Mae become real soon.”
Each bus will have two shower stations and Sandoval expects that by 2015,they’ be able to provide 2000 showers a week.
