The Homeless Paperboy
My name is Oscar, and I have started this gofundme to help a family in East Longmeadow MA,this is their story
"The Bechum family contacted me on June 4th after following me on Twitter and saw that the charity services my company offers could help create awareness for their family. Comments were disabled at the request of the family. The older gofundme page is still up! No one in their community has offered to help so they reach out to someone in another state.
Feel free to view my videos on YouTube search SILISPRO. If you have any questions message me on Facebook." - Oscar
I'm glad that more people are beginning to share our post. The Lord will bless you for it.
The Bechum family was fine until their business was closed in 2011. (Shown Below) and have been struggeling since then.
They rented a home for a while that was in need of major repairs. While they lived there the collected used items that people didn't want in the hopes of starting a thrift store to be able to support themselves all the while being told that the house was going to be repaired to meet basic living conditions - but that never happened. They waited, and waited with no plumbing or heat for 2 whole years! All they had to cook on was a small wood stove. All they had to work with as far as electricity was three outlets and a refrigerator.
Little did they know that that home was soon to be condemned by the city and were forced to move out.
Here is an article from May 15th, 2015 about what happened.

After that, they lived in their vehicle, and began to look for help from anyone they could find.
They were even made fun of for asking other people for help.
On December of 2015 they were involved in a horrible car accident during a freezing rain, thankfully no one was hurt, but their vehicle was totaled, and were left with nothing. They walked for several hours holding what ever items they can carry from the wreckage in the rain to a near by hotel and stayed there until they could no longer afford to pay for the room. This was the beginning of their fight to survive.
Their situation got worse and worse. After some time, they managed to buy used car for $300 dollars but later had to sell it to make a few dollars to buy food. Last summer they had to live at the Pageant Park Camp Grounds In Barton Vermont in tents.
They cleaned other peoples houses, sold cans and things they would find on the side of the road for a living, and it's heart breaking. Sue and Dave are currently living in a car and delivering news papers to very wealthy homes as they save money for a home. They get very little sleep each night, but they are really trying so hard to make ends meet. Please share thier story and let's make thier holidays wish come true a home of thier own any donation no matter how small can make a difference .
They have a smile even in the hard times, with your help we can help them get a smile for a lifetime! All of the proceeds are received the Bechum family to help them with groceries and basic necessities. Any amount will help.
I will be eternally grateful for your help!
