From Times Staff and Wire Reports

A downtown program for the homeless will be able to resume allowing people to use showers, the program’s director announced.

The showers had been turned off because of fundraising problems.

But Catholic Msgr. Joseph Carroll said that news of cutbacks at his St. Vincent de Paul Village had prompted many donations, including a pledge of more than $100,000 from the owners of the Fish Market restaurants.

The showers will resume today.
