The Vatican is nearly done with a new public restroom designed for use by the homeless. Homeless are often shunned because of their smell and appearance, the Vatican is looking to help them by providing public showers six-days a week, and free hair cuts and shaves from volunteer barbers on Mondays. The new washrooms will be made from high tech, hygienic material that ensures proper sanitation. This is that latest move from Pope Francis to focus on helping the world’s poorest people.
