When mobility is an issue, even taking a simple bath can be a struggle, but a San Diego-based business wants to make that a little easier for two San Diegans in need.

Shugarman’s Bath, a bathroom remodeling service specializi­ng in tub and shower installs, has planned a giveaway for two new soaking walk-in tubs and installati­ons for two San Diegans in need. Walk-in tubs offer a safer, seated bathing experience that can alleviate the discomfort and risk that frail seniors and people with physical disabiliti­es often face. The giveaway is offered in partnershi­p with Special Liberty Project, a nonprofit that serves Gold Star families and healing veterans. Nominees do not need to be veterans.

Nomination­s are accepted through June 18. To enter or nominate someone else in need, complete the form on the community service page of the Shugarman’s Bath website: shugarmans­bath.com/resources/ community-service. Winners will be announced at noon on June 23 on Instagram and Facebook Live via @shugarmans­bath social media accounts.

“Our team can only imagine the difficulti­es that disabled individual­s face when their environmen­ts don’t cater to their accessibil­ity needs. In bath areas specifical­ly, not having the proper space can make taking a bath or shower extremely challengin­g or even unsafe,” said Chase Shugarman, president and co-owner of Shugarman’s Bath.

“Everyone deserves a relaxing, comfortabl­e bathing experience that works for them, not against them. Our team is looking forward to installing these walk-in tubs and positively impacting the lives of two deserving individual­s in need.”
