"It's everybody's problem – it's all of our problem – and if we don't try to address it together then it's never going to get solved,"
Joey Manahan, Councilman
What DRIVES Us:
All human beings have an inborne dignity which cannot be diminished. HiEHiE is the Hawaiian way to express this inalienable sense of dignity. We bring showers to the streets 4-5 times per week.
We chose this name for the mobile hygiene services we provide throughout our O`ahu home to help individuals experiencing homelessness remember that they can still project their dignity to the world. Like clean water, access to bathing facilities is a basic human right.
Bathing and basic hygiene also serve the individual's and our community's HiEHiE by reducing infections and disease, improving a sense of self-worth, and allowing those currently transitioning through homelessness connect with basic social and community services without having to walk through an office door.
We are working with over 40 local and national partners to provide essential, but often ignored services like bathing and hygiene, and host monthly pop-up Oasis of Care events to connect the community with services.
