HELPING A HOMELESS MAN GET BACK ON HIS FEET
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Danielle and I live in a small town in Newcastle, On. We have a homeless man here who sits beside a garbage can, out front of Shoppers Drugmart and reads. He has a hat on the ground in front of him for spare change, he never asks for a dime and is always very appreciative of what he receives. This man's name is Brian and he is 60 years old, he loves when people take the time to stop and chat with him and ask about his day. I took the time one day and I knew from that very moment, I needed to help him get back on his feet. I offered him a job on my farm and he started the next day. He has come everyday and is always ready to be picked up, he gives 100% all day with no complaints. I can't afford to pay much so I reached out to our community. What a response of encouragement and support we have received, it fills my heart. I really want to raise enough money to get Brian in a nice warm place he can call his own and re-build his life. It is so cold out there and he lives in a small shed with no insulation. We have managed to get him a hotel room for 2 nights but tomorrow he will be back outside after work. Anything helps, even if you share this. Both myself and Brian are so very grateful for all he has received so far. Thank you and God Bless you all
