Drive By Fooding
A few months ago I decided to pack 50 lunch bags with a bottle of water, an apple, an orange, a granola bar, and a little bag of snacks, and drive around Chicago passing them out to any homeless person that wanted it. It was completely spur of the moment, and I ran out of bags in about 5 hours. After seeing the appreciation and smiles of people who thought society had forgotten about them, I decided I wanted to do this more often, on a bigger scale, in more cities, and with more people helping. Now, with your help, we have the chance to expand this project, and help some people who deserve more, starting with some good food, clothing, blankets, and toiletries. I'm doing this because I was homeless for a period of my life, and there were a few strangers that helped me without my asking. Now that I'm able to, I feel like it's my duty to help the forgotten. This will be a lifelong project, with the hopes that it won't have to be. The goal dollar amount will go up as we expand to other cities, and further expand the project. We are only in phase one, as we plan on getting RVs to provide bathing/showering options for the homeless, provide laundry services, as well as create jobs for them though this project through city beautification projects (trash cleanup/mural painting, etc..), helping to find housing, as well as finding healthcare options for these homeless warriors. We are now a state and federally approved 501c3 nonprofit with locations in Chicago and Kansas City, with more cities coming soon. Thank you for your support!!!
