Refresh SF is a system predicated on the need to promote public health, build awareness of homelessness and encourage giving through an easy to donate system. We believe that this first step is in making the simple things such as access to a source of water to cleanse and refresh is the first start in regaining personal dignity and mutual recognition of our humanity.
