Whatever clothes our clients have, they cart around most of the time, so they\u2019ll have lots of warm clothes, but not necessarily cooler stuff.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need t-shirts, shorts, thongs, and always underwear. That\u2019s a big thing. Another thing we don\u2019t have a lot of is little packets of sunscreen for when the weather gets really hot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you are willing to donate items, it is worth contacting the groups to see what supplies are running low or what is most needed that week, whether it be food-handling gloves and long-life milk for The SoupBus, or shampoo and conditioner for the Shower Bus.<\/p>\n<p>The SoupBus has said support from residents and local businesses ensures their survival. Last week, Domino\u2019s Pizza Sebastopol donated around 40 pizzas to the volunteer kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>The Rotary Club of Ballarat West recently gave $8000 to fund a double oven, cooktop, rangehood and fridge for the original SoupBus.<\/p>\n<p>Two permanent SoupBus vehicles will soon be servicing Ballarat.<\/p>\n<p>Contact can be made with OHSB and The SoupBus\u2019 volunteers via Facebook messages at <a href=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/TheSoupBus\"><strong>facebook.com\/TheSoupBus<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/OneHumanityShowerBus\"><strong>facebook.com\/OneHumanityShowerBus<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AS the pandemic carries through spring, The SoupBus and One Humanity Shower Bus will continue to collaborate, servicing their clients of an evening on Armstrong Street South.
