Shower Trailer

Joshua’s Showers for the Homeless

Our shower trailer is available to anyone in need of a hot shower anytime during regular hours.

History
Covid-19 shut-downs in 2020 had left no facilities open for the homeless to shower. An angel donation came from a long-time friend and supporter of Net of Compassion, Sophie Kozaczka of Keller Williams on Shrewsbury Street, Worcester. Sophie lost her son, Joshua Peter Kozaczka, to substance use disorder on November 12, 2019. She wants the shower trailer to serve as a tribute to his life and a tangible reminder that people still love and care for the homeless and those suffering from substance use disorder. She hopes that this loving environment may help others recover.
NEW Location and Hours:
44 Temple Street, Worcester MA at St. John's Church
Monday–Friday, 7:00 am–11:00 am

This program is made possible, in part, by funding from United Way of Central Massachusetts.
