For years, Refresh Lancaster has been committed to restoring dignity, hope, and compassion to our neighbors experiencing homelessness through free showers, hygiene services, and outreach care.

Refresh Lancaster, the county’s only mobile hygiene unit program dedicated to bringing dignity and basic medical care to those needing it across Lancaster County, is facing termination at the end of June without additional funding.

To sustain operations of three city deployments a week for one year, the program needs to raise $100,000 before June 30, 2026.

Refresh Lancaster has made a measurable impact on the lives of those we serve. Not only for basic hygiene, but in providing many with the only medical care they have throughout the year.

We need your help to continue this vital work. Please consider making a donation today using the link below and share this information with others. Thank you for your support!

We want to share an update to our April schedule. Due to changes in our current capacity and resources, we have had to reduce the number of deployments moving forward.

This was not an easy decision, and we understand the impact it may have on our community. Our goal is to continue providing consistent, quality care—showers, hygiene services, and support—with the resources we have available.

We sincerely apologize for this change and appreciate your understanding and continued support.

Please review the updated schedule below and share to help us spread the word so those who rely on our services know when to find us. 🤝💙

🚿💙 ¡DÍA DEL CAMIÓN DE DUCHAS!

Hoy celebramos algo que puede parecer sencillo… pero que transforma vidas.

Estamos profundamente agradecidos por la hermosa colaboración con Lancaster EMS y el programa Refresh Lancaster, quienes a través de su camión móvil de higiene brindan:

✨ Duchas calientes
✨ Ropa limpia
✨ Dignidad restaurada

Todo esto para nuestros vecinos sin hogar en The Hub, cada martes y jueves, con cuidado y amor genuino.

💭 Porque a veces… lo que parece un gesto pequeño
👉 se convierte en un acto extraordinario de compasión

📖 “Porque tuve hambre, y me disteis de comer; tuve sed, y me disteis de beber…”
— Mateo 25:35

🚿💙 SHOWER TRUCK DAY!

Today we celebrate something that may seem simple… but truly transforms lives.

We are deeply grateful for the incredible partnership with Lancaster EMS and Refresh Lancaster, whose mobile hygiene truck provides:

✨ Warm showers
✨ Clean clothes
✨ Restored dignity

Serving our unsheltered neighbors at The Hub every Tuesday and Thursday with genuine care and compassion.

💭 Because sometimes… what seems like a small act
👉 becomes an extraordinary expression of love

📖 “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat…”
