End & Prevent Homelessness!

#SupportBusinessesThatCare

You have what it takes to impact homelessness if you decide to help the people in your own backyard that want help, first. I came across someone and took a picture of their set up this past weekend, its a sad situation that occurs way too often.

There are people out there just looking for a chance, weren't given a chance, and ended up homeless because they didn't have a way to make a way. Isn't that messed up? Anyone runs the risk of this if there isn't anyone in reach that actually cares. I've had the opportunity to help people out that have needed it, and the result gives them the opportunity to help someone else.


You don't even have to help someone with money, because the right advice can help turn them in the right direction. I've had the pleasure of helping someone obtain two jobs simultaneously, which helped them move their children into a home in a better location than that of the previous apartment. It didn't require money, and it doesn't even always require a job lead, it could be something as small as optimism that detours self doubt. Everyone won't be open to receiving help, but if someone truly reaches out and you can do something, I hope you strongly consider doing it; remember that could've been you.

If you aren't the type that feels comfortable dealing with the homeless, at least support businesses that care so that we're able to make a bigger impact. This would result in a lot more being done compared to nothing being done at all by businesses that care less.
