AUSTIN, Texas — Taking a shower and washing our clothes are things many of us take for granted.
Thanks to the nonprofit Lighter Loads ATX, some homeless individuals in Austin were able to do both of those things on Saturday.
The group’s new mobile showering and laundry unit was on full display outside of Mosaic Church in North Austin during a block party.
Many took showers and washed and dried their clothes during the party. Lighter Loads ATX also offered free meals, a hygiene station, free clothes and even chiropractic care.
Those who took advantage of the services were grateful.
