Didn't Make Excuses, Denton Makes it Happen!


UPDATE : Hike Across America

Businessman, Speaker, Marine Shane Johnson shared his mission and inspired homeless veterans at the 3rd Annual Denton County Homeless Veteran Stand Down and Resource Fair, Denton, TX.



To veterans, stand downs were usually two or three-day "time-out" periods when soldiers came off the battlefield and into a safe place. The same stand down experience veterans had in Vietnam is being recreated today across the country for veterans who need to come in from the trenches of the homeless battlefield. The hope is that while participating in a stand down, the veterans will get help to come in from the streets permanently.


Veterans who attended the stand down were be able to obtain hygiene kits, winter clothing, socks, boots, sleeping bags, toiletries, haircuts and information about benefits, housing and medical/mental health care.

Hike Across America partner Clean The World supplied hygiene kits that were handed out to homeless veterans.


Clean the World has a two-part mission:
Collect and recycle soap and hygiene products discarded every day by the hospitality industry and other sectors that generate environmental waste.

Through the distribution of these and other donated products to impoverished people, prevent millions of hygiene-related deaths each year, reduce the morbidity rate for hygiene-related illnesses, and encourage vigorous childhood development.


Shane Johnson and the Booyah Veteran Bus Project Team appreciates Frenchy's Lawn & Tree in Denton, Texas for their support and great patriotism!
