Every day, thousands in Houston, Texas wake up wondering: Will anyone see me? For those who are unsheltered—or aging and isolated at home—the pain goes beyond hunger or a place to sleep. The pain is losing their sense of self. Sweat, dust, and shame cling for days or weeks. Doors close, opportunities vanish, and hope dims as dignity disappears.
Imagine sinking into clean, warm water after months of feeling invisible. That very first rinse brings not just comfort—it brings the return of confidence, belonging, and hope. It’s the first step on a journey back to humanity, where possibility replaces despair.

“They See Me Now.” – Marvin’s Story
“I hadn’t showered in 11 days. I’d given up hope anyone cared. But Houston Community Ministries saw the person under the grime. I stepped out of their trailer—clean, smiling, ready to call my sister again. Now, I remember what hope feels like. For the first time in years, I don’t just survive. I live.”
Every person we serve has a similar story waiting to be written.
