See Beautiful Grant Recipient

We are honored to announce that Love Beyond Walls is the recent recipient of a philanthropic grant for $5000 through the organization, See Beautiful

See Beautiful empowers & educates individuals to see the beauty in themselves and others while supporting causes to create a better world. 

Through our grant partnership, we are able to bring the safety of sanitation to vulnerable populations as well as other vital resources to ensure quality of life and instill dignity. 

How beautiful is that? 

This partnership will support:

  1. Over 150,000 people experiencing homelessness the ability to wash their hands daily; keeping them safer from COVID-19.
  2. Granting access for people experiencing homelessness to community, emergency food services, laundry facilities, hair cuts, school uniforms for their children, suits for job interviews, and overnight stays to support them in their goal to be self-sufficient.
  3. The development and dissemination of our Dignity Museum into a virtual experience to encourage and support empathetic growth among our communities.

A world full of equity, justice, and inclusivity is a beautiful world. Together, Love Beyond Walls and See Beautiful are making the world a more beautiful place for ALL of us to live in.

Our #LoveSinksIn campaign has officially reached 27 cities (providing sanitation around the U.S. and Canada)!

By the end of the week, we will reach 30 cities. If you don’t see your city and you would love to partner with us, reach out.

We are also excited to announce that we have officially reached our first country outside of the U.S. We have partnered with two groups to install sinks in Canada.

A heartfelt ‘Thank You’ to each of you who have supported and carried ‘Love Sinks In.’ Together, we can take handwashing across the world.

Eugene Speaks – Love Sinks In

We met Eugene underneath a bridge for the #LoveSinksIn campaign.

“You don’t know if you’re going to live in the next minute…the next hour…you don’t know.”

We’re grateful to have met Eugene, and are currently working with him to help him recover his ID and housing.

Handwashing Stations in Ohio & Texas

This week, we partnered with a shelter and the YMCA in Columbus, OH to serve women and children with handwashing stations.

Additionally, we planted the first round of stations in Austin, Texas in partnership with Hope Community Church Austin & The Immigration Coalition.

The beginning of next week, we are planting stations in New York and New Jersey to work with teams on the ground to serve people experiencing homelessness.

Thank you to those of you that support our work. We are working to take handwashing across America.
