Next story today. Like many major cities worldwide, the historic U.S. port city of San Francisco, California, has thousands of homeless people living on the streets. And that`s despite the fact that local officials have taken a number of steps to help them.
下一個故事。和世界上許多大城市一樣,美國歷史上著名的港口城市舊金山,也有成千上萬無家可歸的人住在街道上。盡管當(dāng)?shù)毓賳T采取了一些措施來幫助他們,但這仍然是事實(shí)。
In 2013, Doniece Sandoval joined those efforts. She started by turning old city buses in the places where those in need can get towels, hygiene kits, razors and a shower. Today, she`s a CNN Hero.
2013年,多尼斯·桑多瓦爾開始奉獻(xiàn)自己的努力。她開始把舊的城市公交車放在那些需要毛巾、衛(wèi)生用品、剃須刀和淋浴的地方。她是我們本期CNN的英雄人物。
DONIECE SANDOVAL, CNN HERO: San Francisco is one of the most beautiful places to live. However, you will see thousands upon thousands of people who are living and sleeping on our streets. Every person I saw was struggling with hygiene.
多尼斯·桑多瓦爾,CNN英雄人物:舊金山是最美麗的居住地。但是你可以看到成千上萬的人露宿街頭。我所看到的人都在與衛(wèi)生做斗爭。
If you were trying to apply for a job, or apply for housing, you can`t do that if you can`t get yourself cleaned. So, it`s simple, but it`s critical.
如果你想申請一份工作,或者申請住房,如果你健康存在問題,就不能成功。這很簡單,但很關(guān)鍵。
Taking action was not even a choice at that point. It`s just something I had to do.
在這一點(diǎn)上,采取行動甚至不是一種選擇。而是必須做的事情。
We began by converting busses into showers and toilets. To increase our efficiency, we decided to switch to the mobile, commercial shower trailer units so that we can get them out there faster and meet need more effectively.
我們開始把公交車改裝成淋浴和廁所。為了提高效率,我們決定改用流動的商業(yè)淋浴房車,這樣我們就能更快地完成工作,并且更有效地滿足需求。
By virtue of being mobile, we`re able to go into different regions of the city where people are.
由于我們的幫助是流動的,這樣就能到達(dá)城市的不同區(qū)域。
Are you looking to sign up for the shower?
你是想報名淋浴嗎?
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I will sign up.

SANDOVAL: OK. Great.
桑多瓦爾:好的。
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: (INAUDIBLE) three. Steve, one. We`re good to go.
未知男:史蒂芬。我們可以走了。
SANDOVAL: These are people who get turned away often, who get treated poorly and our ideas just to open our arms and we`ve expanded our programming to include pop-up care villages, which bring a ton of providers to the street to provide everything from haircuts to medical services.
桑多瓦爾:這些人經(jīng)常被拒之門外,得到不好的待遇,我們的想法就是擁抱他們。我們擴(kuò)大了幫助的項目,包括衛(wèi)生項目,我們匯聚了大量的供應(yīng)商來到這條街道,提供從理發(fā)到醫(yī)療等各種服務(wù)。
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: You needed a hygiene kit.
未知男:你需要一套衛(wèi)生用品。
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes.
未知男:嗯
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There you go, Walter.
未知男:給你,沃爾特。
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: All right. Thanks.
未知男:好的。謝謝。
SANDOVAL: Hygiene connects you to your sense of dignity.
桑多瓦爾:衛(wèi)生與你的尊嚴(yán)相關(guān)。
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I feel better.
未知男:我感覺好多了。
SANDOVAL: There are countless success stories that we witness over the years, people getting employed and finding housing, or overcoming addictions.
桑多瓦爾:這些年有很多成功的案例,人們找到了工作、住房、克服了毒癮。
