BUILDING EMERGENCY MODULAR COMMUNITIES
Give Me Shelter California, Inc. is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization committed to building emergency modular community shelters that provide immediate safety, dignity, and hope for veterans and people experiencing homelessness. No one should be forced to sleep on a sidewalk, in a vehicle, or in the open while waiting months or even years for affordable housing to become available.
Emergency Tiny House Shelters
Our Emergency modular housing Shelters are thoughtfully designed to provide what matters most during a housing crisis.
Each shelter features a durable single room design with secure locking doors, basic electrical service for interior lighting and charging mobile devices, and steel reinforced entry doors with a deadbolt for added safety and peace of mind.
While these shelters are intentionally simple and do not include running water, they offer protection from the elements and a stable environment where individuals can begin rebuilding their lives.
MOBILE SHOWER UNITS
We believe that everyone deserves more than survival they deserve the chance to thrive. A safe place to sleep and access to a hot shower are fundamental human needs that provide far more than physical comfort. They restore confidence, support physical well-being, and help people prepare for job interviews, medical appointments, housing meetings, and reconnecting with family and their community. These simple yet powerful acts of care help restore dignity, self worth, and hope.
Some really serious health complications can arise if you don’t scrub up every so often. While your skin is a great barrier against dangerous pathogens just dying to get inside of your body, if your skin is filthy you might end up letting them in. You’re going to itch and scratch if you don’t wash, and when you break your skin the door is open for lethal germs to make a new home.
Our Mission
To bring people together to create real, lasting solutions that restore hope and transform lives. We accomplish this by designing and building emergency modular shelters that provide immediate safety, security, and protection for people experiencing homelessness, developing full-size tiny homes that create pathways to transitional and permanent housing, and operating mobile shower units that restore dignity, improve health, and provide opportunities for people to move forward.

Every modular shelter community we build, every shower we provide, and every life we touch is a reminder that when communities come together, compassion becomes action and lasting change is possible.
MOBILE SHOWER UNITS
We operate mobile shower units that restore dignity, improve health, and help people regain the confidence needed to pursue employment, attend medical appointments, meet with housing providers, and reconnect with family and their community.
Document Assistance
Identification Document Assistance is available to individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness or those released from jail/prison within the last three months. Should you qualify, we will help you acquire replacement identification documents at no cost to you, including birth certificates, as well as social security cards, school records, and other supporting documents in order to help you obtain legal state ID.
