The Mission of Simply the Basics is to provide for people, communities, and nonprofit organizations their most basic hygiene needs with Dignity so that they can focus on greater goals. We are making hygiene more Equitable and Accessible as the first National Hygiene Bank.
As compared with people who have homes, people experiencing homelessness are more likely to have dermatological problems, infections, heart disease, functional limitation, seizures, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, foot pain, and decayed teeth due to lack of proper hygiene care.
The risk of death is increased eightfold in people who experience these conditions.
