In a city that seems to be fighting an insurmountable homeless problem, the founder of Lava Mae saw a need that none had recognized. Being homeless also means having no access to showers and sanitation. It might sound like a small issue, but it’s significant when it comes to dignity. For Lava Mae, it’s about fundamental human rights. The organization turned old buses into mobile hygiene stations serving people in both San Francisco and Los Angeles.
our challenge – Lava Mae needed a website that could serve multiple audiences: donors, volunteers, and more importantly, clients; people who need to access the services.
from transportation to transformation
Through the website, Lava Mae has been able to reach more homeless clients and increase the awareness of the growing organization. In 2017, founder Doniece Sandoval was named a CNN Hero for her work.
