Our Organization visited a place they call “tent city” in Pottstown. Not only did the individuals living here appreciate the items we brought to them, I think they appreciated the fact that we took the time to have conversations with them. Everyone needs to be reminded that these are fellow human beings who simply fell on hard times and are now in a dark place. Many are ignored, or treated as monsters (not from our mouths but from theirs). We also realize, some do not wish to get help or prefer to not make healthy decisions, however, we cannot give up on them as there are MANY who want to get out of this horrible situation.
Here’s the harsh truth. Without giving the exact numbers, this country is seeing more and more unhoused individuals., substance use, and mental health issues. As stated above not all seek assistance or seek healthier means to their situation, but if you look at those who do want help, the numbers are staggering. We ask that everyone consider this, and show compassion in your heart. You could possibly save a life, give someone hope, and most of all show that they matter too.
Pictures of the outreach are up in our gallery section. Please also consider giving to our organization. We are currently at a stand still with our third development stage of the platform. Funds are needed for the platform moving forward and if you wish to donate for our outreaches, it is GREATLY appreciated!
Thank you from our team!!
