Mobile Hygiene Unit Initiative
We are bringing to Akron | Summit County, Ohio a shower bus! We will launch and provide a place for showers, give away clean clothing and shoes for the most vulnerable of our community!
If you’d like to get involved consider becoming a monthly donor to support this community service work effort, which includes monthly Food distributions, vehicles for veterans, youth mentoring, bike distribution and yes…. A 2008 forty-five-foot motor coach retrofitted into a Mobile Hygiene Unit
(Shower Bus) estimated to provide 30 showers per day during a five-hour day.
Guests will receive an estimated seven-minute shower, with 13 minutes for changing
etc.
A donation of $1374.30 will provide one day of showers for up to 30 individuals.

Food Distribution
The organization typically offers monthly give-a-ways. Some are holiday focused with special activities for kids and their parents.
In addition to regularly distributed items, gift cards from local retail establishments are also provided. These events are well received with approximately 250 clients served.
Typical monthly give-a-ways include securing 15 to 20 volunteers including board members to set up the distribution site by:
- setting up the intake table
- organizing boxes of food, clothing, etc. in special zones
- displaying food, clothing etc. for clients to take
- escorting clients as desired items are selected
- assisting clients and selected items to vehicles as needed.
- volunteers restock displays
- clean up and pack up
Special Services
Recognizing the tremendous need in the target area, though not the main focus of the agency, when possible, Forever R Children works to help the homeless by assisting with housing referrals, transportation, food, toiletries, shoes and socks upon request.
The organization has also donated two cars to individuals needing transportation.
