Think Dignity, a San Diego-based 501(c)(3) organization, aims to inspire, empower, and organize our communities to advance basic dignity for those experiencing homelessness through the provision of legal advocacy and social services.
The Fresh Start Showers program--the largest program in our line of Mobile Operations of Dignity (MOD) Squad services--travels to 10-12 sites throughout San Diego County to provide access to basic hygiene services for those experiencing homelessness. Our shower events also serve as a resource hub as we invite other agencies and community partners to provide services and opportunities to restore dignity, such as mental health and medical assistance, hot meals, haircuts, and clean clothes.
For Thriving Life Church in Vista, the Fresh Start Showers program provides services every 2nd Saturday of the month. Volunteer shifts will be from 9:30am - 1:30pm.
Volunteers can support the Fresh Start Showers events by:
- Managing the resource table and assisting with intake/exit forms
- Ensuring cleanliness and safety of showers units and monitoring shower times
- Distributing and replenishing the shower supply table
Please contact Merlynn Watanabe at merlynn@thinkdignity.org if you have any questions.

Our strength lies in our collaborative, volunteer-based model. Each of us doing our small part makes a big difference, and working together can make the world a better place. We mobilize our community partners and volunteers to accomplish our collective goals. Our success story is not grandiose, but comes from small steps taken every day. We call this micro-activism at its finest.
