Our First Trailer Fund

We’re $9,238 from putting hot showers on the street.

Every gift brings the first Living Well mobile shower unit closer to its first outreach night in Kansas City. When it rolls, our neighbors get a private, hot shower — and the dignity that comes with it.

Our Route Through The City

One mission, met in eight practical ways.

We bring everything with us and go wherever our neighbors already are, so no one has to find their way to us first.

Mobile Showers

Private, heated shower trailers with soap, shampoo, and fresh towels — because clean water is a basic act of dignity.

Hygiene Products

Toothbrushes, soap, deodorant, feminine care, and grooming kits handed out fresh at every stop.

Meals & Groceries

Hot meals on-route and take-home grocery bags for the days between our visits.

Clean Clothing

Seasonally appropriate clothing, coats, socks, and shoes, sorted and sized on-site.

Haircuts & Grooming

Free haircuts and beard trims from volunteer barbers — often the thing that makes a job interview feel possible.

First Aid & Wound Care

Basic first aid, wound care, and referrals to partner clinics for anything beyond our scope.

Mental Health & Recovery Support

Compassionate listening, prayer, and warm hand-offs to counseling and substance abuse recovery partners.

ID, Social Security & Job Help

Hands-on help replacing IDs and Social Security cards, and coaching through job applications and resumes.

Help bring this to life.

Our Mission

We serve because Christ served first.

Mission Statement

The Living Well Outreach is a Christ-centered ministry that brings hot showers, hygiene supplies, haircuts, clean clothing, food, and first aid directly to our unhoused neighbors in Kansas City — and walks alongside them toward recovery, employment, and stable identification. We serve every person who comes to us with dignity, respect, and hope, asking nothing in return, because each one bears the image of God and is worthy of being seen, valued, and loved.

The Living Well Outreach is a registered nonprofit organization. Our 501(c)(3) tax-exempt application is in progress; until the IRS issues our determination letter, gifts are not yet tax-deductible.

That mission shapes everything we do, and it holds us to a few commitments:

  • Dignity first. Private, clean, unhurried — never a line to endure.
  • We come to you. No one has to find their way to us.
  • No conditions. Help never depends on belief, sobriety, or ID.
  • Beyond the shower. A next step, not just a service.
  • Whole-person care. Body, mind, and spirit — all three matter.
  • Faithful stewardship. Every dollar goes to the street.
"Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."
Matthew 25:40

Our Proposal

The plan, on one page.

This is the vision we're raising toward: a fully equipped mobile shower unit serving Kansas City, along with the clothing, food, and hygiene supplies that go out beside it. Share it with anyone who might want to help.

Monthly Giving

Become a Living Well Partner.

One-time gifts let us serve. Monthly gifts let us plan — and planning is what turns an outreach into a route people can count on.

  • We can promise to come back. The people we serve have been let down by a lot of systems. Showing up when we said we would is most of what earns trust.
  • Supplies stay stocked. Predictable income means we order ahead instead of scrambling week to week.
  • Small amounts add up. Twenty partners at $25 a month funds hygiene kits for a full year.
  • Change or cancel any time. No calls, no guilt — just email us.

Partners receive a short update each month on where the route went and who it reached. Gifts are not yet tax-deductible while our 501(c)(3) application is in progress.
