I was homeless and pregnant..........got up on my feet....i think about when i was homeless a lot. I cry when i see homeless people and i help them out when i can.You are loved!
I was also pregnant and homeless 3o yrs ago, running and everything I owned In my car. Made it through because God carried me the whole time. He blessed me and grateful my children still love me❤️
@@priscillamission7234 ye after the pandemic one through the pandemic I’m going to help them
@@priscillamission7234 I came home from work the other day I saw a man stumble I asked him if he is ok and asked if he whose homeless he sed he is homeless I don’t no if he fell over because drugs or being tired but I gave him my last £5 five pounds I hade and told him have a good night
I had to pause this video to touch on something Ray said thats so true no matter if you stop being homeless and start living in your own place ..you'll never forget what it was like being homeless i don't care who you are ...he was right because I was homeless from the age 15 to 22..and now im 44 been out of the streets over 20yrs now and i still think about what it was like PTSD is what you call it ..thank God I found a way out ..so can you.
Exactly ….. I’ve been homeless and hungry. I was 18 and found myself alone and on the streets of Cleveland in the middle of winter. I’ve never forgotten how I felt and I’m really a blessed man today and it gives me a lot of empathy for folks on the streets.
Ray is now off the streets and drives from SC to NC to help us all the time and volunteers! He is a Ray of hope! :)
Love and Light to all… I forget my gratitude and you just reminded me ❤️ Peace
Yeah you never forget it
Thanks for your encouragement. Yes Although I was taken off street 3months ago I am frightened in system in Uk that I ll be left homeless again.
Due to a pretty silly circumstance, I found myself with no money at all, no phone in a stranger city. I was homeless for 3 days (mid winter). I will never forget that as long as I live, and to you all I want to say: it's tough and scary. And I only tried it for such a short time.
You weren’t homeless. You just weren’t home. Nice try.
@@williamwilson6499 being picky, aren't you? Sorry if I expressed myself in a manner that doesn't meet your high standards.
I was homeless from May 2019 to June 2021 in Kentucky and I will never forget my experience and struggles. I struggle with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Fibromyalgia, PTSD and addiction. If not for my dog, I don't know if I would have survived my time on the street. He protected me, kept me warm, provided company and gave me a purpose to get up every day and continue to battle my demons.
I am now in transitional housing and my pooch is staying with family members until I can get he and I a place of our own.
It's not easy out there.... It's so difficult and exhausting. Not enough resources out there for the amount of people in need.
Good luck Ms🙏🏽❤️
Ae your poor dog was with you all that time, you get holding hes gone to family. Dogs are out kids and they grieve and bond too. He needs to be with you. Noone will love him like you do
God bless you. Glad you survived. Love to you and your pooch. From MANCHESTER UK.
I find it crazy that we have infomercials that say 25 cents a day can feed a child in a whole other country....what about our homeless men, women and children....why don't we have the same care and concern for our own Americans....thank you Watchmen of the streets.....your doing Gods work....God bless you🙏🏽❤🙏🏽
It's because our country has services that attempt to help these people, those countries do not and they literally starve to death on the sides of roads. People are too poor themselves to give up the food they need for their families in order to live one more day. Here for the most part that just wouldnt happen.
Lady, you are clueless.
That's exactly what I said about this proxy war with the UKraine.
What we need to remember is that homlessness also addiction is not a choice or weakness, it can easily happen to anyone at any time. Even if you in your own struggles can't give a lot we must each do what we can for each other. It is as simple as "do unto others as you would have them do unto you".
Awesome video! My heart goes out to all of the homeless, I’ve been there too, life isn’t easy & not everyone has the heart of an angel to see we’re all human beings! Thank goodness for people like you sharing your love! I’ll be out there one day to offer my help!👍❤️
Thanks Tony L! I agree, we all are human beings, we all make mistakes. I appreciate the love!
Sending love to all ❤️ people are way too judgemental the world over. Homelessness is going to include many more of us in the future. It's true, it is not always drug or alcohol related and even when it is there is often tragic reasons behind addictions too. Humanity needs to wake the f... Up ! We should all care enough about people not to allow anybody to have to suffer the indiginities of homelessness.
Yes. We are all in this together. We need more love and compassion in our country as world.
Why do we need to wake the fawn up?
Just donated. Keep spreading God's love & kindness. Years ago, I remember receiving help, not from my mother, but from a charity. 🤍
The government could solve this problem easy using the money they waste.
@Arthur they tried that back in the 60s and 70s when they built The Projects that became slums and high crime areas and people tore up the place because it was free and they had no respect for it
This is very good. I was homeless for for five years. I had a job a car a tent and a Siberian Husky. Thirty years later, I own my house, I mean it is paid for. You will think I am crazy but, I think about my tent my car and my huskie. Those were the best days of my life. I was free.
Well then, you just hand all that over to a homeless person and go be “free.” They’ll appreciate your magnanimous “gesture” and just for you, welcome to the “🎵Great Wide Open, A Rebel Without a Clue.🎶 (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.)
@@tundrawomansays5067 😄👍
I get asked for money a lot going into Walmart and I say”come in and I will buy you food at the deli and a drink” I hate going to bed hungry ...all I think about is something to eat and what time is it instead of sleeping. Homeless people can’t jump in their car and go to Wafflehouse for some eggs and hash browns. I might not have a lot but I hope I always have a couple xtra bucks for someone in need. My mother fussed at me but I said what would Jesus do and what if that’s Jesus checking up on me?
Bless you.
Good strategy, hanging out close to Walmart's..Also should try the waffle House..
The Blessing you give ALWAYS Blesses you back!!!!💝
God bless your heart!
When I used to go to sleep hungry I’d just dream about food and eating all night ..just cant fall asleep hungry..I think of all the stray and feral animals and the humans that are cursed to have to do that very thing without a break, it’s one day bleeding into the next.
I went out to eat. I didn't eat my steak, I gave it to a homeless man and offered my time for conversation. I have been homeless several times.
Why don't I believe you?
@@letushear7301 you don't have to. But why should I care
@Asherah 1147 just hating. But why should I care
Fancy giving someone the food you didn't eat from your Neal you 🐖
Portions are so big, when I used to go to restaurants say in Santa Cruz, I'd get a to-go box and make a nice little 2nd meal in there and then give it to someone who is hungry. Never been turned down.
Praying 🙏 for all ❤️
That man crying in the end of the film. Broke my my hart and made me cry as well...So so sad
Hands down one of the best homeless documentaries I've ever seen I am a formerly homeless veterans right now have a safe home it is small it is very comfortable it is very beautiful God bless those people🏚🦅🇺🇸
It's heartbreaking seeing those that are trying hard to get out of this situation but it's a broken system with housing.
Those volunteers are something else. Safe travels.
Amazing story! I feed a small group of homeless adults in our area twice weekly. I love doing this! There is a need out there so anything anyone can do to help is always appreciated! Keep up the good work you all are doing!
People will only understand homelessness if they ever become homeless
It’s not a choice that people would choose
It’s something that takes you by surprise or loss of work
A few reasons why people are homeless
But never judge them they all humans
Yeah it's something else it's life changing. You never forget it
Being homeless and living in the woods looks great,
I would actually be tempted to do it.
I've been there alot warmer than camping in the places that are cold. but it was tough too camp there I had my tents taken and it's dangerous
people you walk past everyday are suffering in silence
Very true.
Really beautiful and moving documentary !! I had tears in my eyes for most of the time. It really changed my view. ❤️
The only difference between me and these people is a door 🚪
Very well said and very true thank you for your poetic wisdom
Hi. More then a door.. Thank you Jesus for the shoes I wear and the bed I sleep in and for the wife beside me and for running water in our motel room in West Sacramento California. Have a good day.
You mean the stall door when you're taking a shit at McDonald's 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 hold on...............🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No. That's not true. You have to pay toir rent.
But for the grace of G-d
covet 19 is going to have millions on the street so don't judge and always show love.
The best thing these people could have done is get a cheap motor home. Buy it before you get evicted. Their is cheap ones out their. You can live their forever. Nobody can evict you
Amen to that
With millions on the street(s) we can all do the Cha Cha slide.
@Kai Wong but they will be.
That is so true and I agree with you on that it's sad but so true and sending love 😢❤
In the midst of nice things there is a lonely hidden world.....that hit me to the core. God bless you for taking the time to help those in need and not be judgmental. A quote from the Bible just came to mind watching this..."Let he without sin cast the first stone". No truer words were ever said.
Great documentary I wish all these homeless folk the best moving forward! 👍🏻❤️
Well I am less then 2:30 minutes in to this video and the tears are flowing already.
Well done all the men and women at WATCHMEN it's somewhat reassuring that community minded organisations like yourselves are out there letting people whose life has taken a downturn that they are not forgotten and with a little help and guidance they will be back on track to making a better future for themselves and us all. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.
Great documentary especially the man at the end playing guitar! Thanks for sharing....A real eye opener! God Bless you all...🙏🏼🍀👋🏼🇨🇦
The one thing I think that makes you have a greater chance of ending up homeless is not having family support. I really beg the young people not to get on drugs and if they have kids to love them and give them a safe place to land, their ENTIRE lives if the alternative is being out living in the woods.
I believe the whole world secretly wants love from each other. There does need to be a spiritual revolution in the world 🌎 and I think it has to do with meditation, healing, kindness and friendship to each other.
I'm Disabled, a Veteran, and have been homeless for two years. I'm not a drug addict, just lost my housing two years ago when the apartment complex I was living at in Mesa Arizona was sold to a buyer in Toronto, who promptly notified the tenants living with Section 8 or VASH assistance they had the option to move out or pay full market value rent without assistance.
I found while looking for a place to move to, that most low income housing in my area was eliminated in this same fashion by greedy investors and was unavailable to find another place to live.
I bought an old van on payments and was forced to start living in it. I did so for a year and was offered a tiny fiberglass trailer on payments. I found that the person I bought it from had mislead me on a clear title, and have had difficulty getting it registered and legal to tow. I have been stranded at a Recreation Area, above Kingman Arizona for seven months now trying to get repairs done to my van. It is no longer safe to drive, and definitely not suitable to tow my trailer. It has been a living hell, upto 128 degrees at times this summer, now dealing with freezing cold at night and heavy winds. Every time I try to get some repairs made, something comes up. I bought a used generator which failed in a couple weeks, had to buy another one, then my emotional support dog Archie was badly bitten and required veterinary care, my air conditioning compressor failed in my Van, I cut my knuckle to the bone and ligaments on some glass discarding some trash which resulted in an Emergency Room Visit.
I have been trying to get help, and have not had much success. I was accepted for PATH Rapid Rehousing through the Catholic Charities, but have searched all over Mohave County but found I cannot afford an apartment on my disability income. I have been looking for a room for rent, but no luck.
So now I'm in a panic as I was notified by the Catholic Charities Caseworker handling my information, had their computer stolen and now my personal information has been compromised.
I am on a waiting list for Section 8, basically started over. I did not choose to be in this homeless situation, and have been doing my best to deal with everything I have experienced the past 2 years. I had to literally give everything I owned away when I lost my apartment EVERYTHING!, I did try and keep my many tools, but those to were lost to a "friend" who was going but keep them until I get settled, but would never respond to my calls or texts.
I am absolutely sick of my life. I don't live anymore, I merely exist, and it's not much of an existence at that. I have not showered in nearly 8 months, and haven't bathed in over two years since losing my apartment. My teeth are broken, many missing, and I broke another one recently, not looking forward to the toothache that's coming. I am nearly blind in one eye and can only see clearly with glasses, but I lost one of the lenses. I have reached out to every VA organization or service center I know of for help, but am ineligible.
I worked for the Air Force starting my senior year of high school, as a civilian employee and for the next decade.
I also simultaneously served 6 years in the Air National Guard, and was honorably discharged, but still don't meet the requirements as I was on active duty for well over a year with Avionics Technical School, and was activated during Desert Storm, but could not deploy with my unit, as I was a 3 level technician straight out of school.
I have no family for support, no friends, only a few people I have met while being homeless. I have had a fellow vet brings some water bottles and food items several months back, and just today was given a propane tank, heavy sleeping bag, and nice winter coat by Catholic charities, these were definitely a blessing and will definitely help, but I don't see how I can ever get out of my situation as my limited income doesn't suffice to handle the many needs I currently have trying to get out of my homeless situation along with handling my major dental problems, lack now of a safe vehicle, and trailer registration.
Any day the area I am staying may be closed, the BLM Rangers have told me they plan to close access to this Recreation Area soon. I will be in an Emergency Situation when they do, and have no idea yet what I will do.
Thats horrendous I'm so sorry your going through that. Contact invisible people set up a PayPal if you can. People can donate to help you. Thats how I ended up homeless someone selling their property.
Please don’t judge anyone
Chanae Hardy I do, all those people who hate, discriminate, abuse others. They're shit.
Yes this comment 👏 please treat everybody respectfully. I went to a gas station by one of my clients house the other day at 5:00 in the morning, to get some more bottled water for their pets real quick. I pull up to a lady screaming at a sweet little old lady about how this is not the area to be doing her business and it's too nice and they don't want that kind of traffic up here. Meanwhile, the homeless lady is trying to let this other b**** know that she didn't ask anybody for money she was just hanging out there and she's got her own money. I know that is true, as the homeless lady offered to buy me a drink because I got the lady off her back 🥺 Yes, I ended up giving her money, but it literally took 45 minutes for her to accept $5 from me... So don't judge.
Thank you so much for publishing this video, this is so significant and profound enlightenment for me.
I was 🏡 less for 1_2 years when I was on the streets I found out that KFC has to feed the 🏡 less ALL you have to do is go around back after hours and wait at the back 🚪 ALL the leftovers get taken to the trash then but if you're at the back 🚪 you can get the food before it gets taken to the dumpsters it's still warm it's in the KFC's contract the owner of ALL the KFC's had a son who went on a hunger strike and died from it and the owner of ALL the KFC's said he doesn't want ANY1 to die of hunger
Every time I watch these, I always think of how I have a garage with very little stuff in it. I feel like I want to set up a few beds in there And let people stay while they get back on their feet. Especially if children are involved. They are so innocent and don’t deserve to suffer. I could give these people money one time but I feel like giving them a place to put their things and feel safe would help them so much more. I wish I had money like the kardashians. I would do so much good for the homeless.
Don’t invite strangers in your house. Call social services for them. You can feed a snake and it will still bite you.
@@monicdavis6150 yes its too dangerous
I feel the people who want to be helped, still have a fighting spirit, to get out of this situation should be given maximum opportunity to do so. Not help people get a little comfortable on the street. The others, let it be.
Watched Vice documentary where a hotel is charging very cheap weekly rates to help some get back on their feet. It is keeping some who have very low paying jobs out of homelessness. I think it is a good idea.
There are many in my area who are homeless but still have jobs or are Vets with a tiny pension. Low weekly rent would help these people a lot. Not all homeless are drug addicts and many do work to feed themselves.
I have my own little outreach program here in Salt Lake City I hand out donuts and hot chocolate to the homeless people and then the "Paper Box" company donated the containers for me and my daughter to make about 80 meals of pasta garlic bread and salad we give it to the homeless people we do what we can and then in the summertime I give out cold water to people that are just dying of thirst and try to share with them some food also.
This world is full of despair and hopelessness we need to come together£~~
~~ I am My brother's keeper ❤️
Thank you for sharing this Documentary maybe will Look at Us Differences watch of the street Big Salute to you guys God Bless You guys Love and Peace❤
You guys are amazing. Watchmen I like that. And your right just being a friend is way more than you know.
affordable housing is right working 40 hours a week making 15 dollars an hour its just a shame what
America has become and your right sir it could be fixed but greed consumes people and this country its so sad I feel for these people because I am so scared of not having a home myself and I pray something is done soon because it is going to get worse.
I've got cancer & cannot imagine being homeless going through this tough treatment. This is f##kd up. The homeless aren't invisible or forgotten by me. I see them,talk to them,i dont know how they do it.😞😕
Hey Hey Paula Oz I’m kinda going through that too, cancer came back 3 times along with a heart attack and to boot diabetes, the list goes on believe me, and I was in a position of being homeless! It was rough, how people look down at you and automatically think you’re a drug addict or an alcoholic (I’m neither), it’s rough living for sure trying to stay clean, keeping insulin cold, meds protected & especially being able to make it to the doctors appointments! God bless all these people that are out there!
@@tonyl2220 im sorry Tony. Glad ur off those mean streets now...i struggle living in a little unit let alone being in a doorway or tent. Toilet,shower food etc..im going to the oncologist today n this time ask sum questions. Im going thru this alone as my family are in new Zealand & im in Melbourne Australia. I joined a caner group & its helping me. They said stage 4 terminal. Im not accepting terminal anymore. Im going to juice him like a lemon today. Take care 🙂💖
Hey Hey Paula Oz I’m so sorry to hear about your cancer and the stage, I know it’s not easy. You must be scared & I don’t blame you, what comes to mind is all the people you wanna help or wish you had helped or maybe have done more. just grab that damn cancer by the horns, fight as hard as you can, that mind over matter really helps in time of need, I really wish the best for you.. I’ll make sure to say a prayer for you every day, you’re a sweet soul and we’re all gods children! You be safe I’ll have my fingers crossed 🤞🏻 you have great news!
Hey Hey Paula Oz I wish I could help you, I’m in the states, New York now but heading West to Nevada next year.
@@tonyl2220 thank you Tony..i hope you're doing good..thanks for ur kindness 🦋
I love Sean Caldwell. That was the best interview ever. I'm I guess homeless but I have a place now. See I'm a traveler I decided this to document life in all of America and bring people together not divided and Sean has the best idea. Come on out see this for real..I got 5 months left then no more place. It was a gift . Now back to the real people and they live on the streets
Mad respect for Mr Shawn stay strong.
Truly amazing how positive these people are when they at the bottom of things
❤🙏🏽😘 . Praying for each of you.
God bless the homeless. Being homeless is not an easy life. Would not wish this on anyone. If you have a criminal record it's very very hard to get a job and a apartment.
Some people think why can’t you just get a job, unfortunately it’s just not that easy, for starters you need a home address, drivers license or ID, decent credit in some cases & a place to bathe! I know there are people out there that enjoy living that life and/or are on some kind of substance abuse, or mentally ill...those are the ones needing detox/sobriety/institutional help! A good part of them had a bit of bad luck and want get themselves out!
And a criminal background check...
Temp is exactly what is... TEMPORARY some days yes some days no! I know a guy that does that, can’t pay rent or much of anything else except eat with temp work!
Tony L I started alumni program at salvation army just for this reason. for years I was a counselor at salvation army and the women's shelter, and the number one thing that I was so frustrated about, was they have no way to take care of themselves or get themselves successfully on their feet 😲 just like when you leave prison, you are put out on the street with nothing but your clothes on.... So now try to get yourself successful .... You can't, because the system is failing you to be put out there to be a successful productive human being. The alumni program I started here in Las Vegas, was for graduates, and they would have barbecues or car washes that I would provide the stuff for, and they would earn the money and then that way they can get a bus pass some clothes ID, place to live. They had to be there and actively participate and be clean and the alumni program if they continue to come to alumni, we would help them out and make sure they got on their feet successfully...(bus passes, places to live/halfway houses,, clothes, food, ID,) on the other hand you have to come to terms with what's reality. majority of them didn't want to help and our alumni group was very small, because there was no interest in it,.... I literally had to run the program with seven people.... Out of 123 people that went through that 6 months together 🥺....obviously it still didn't run because we did not get any donations, I was funding the whole thing. Just like everybody wants to talk about it but when push comes to shove no one's really there to help🤷♀️ I ended up getting a divorce and my financial position changed. I had to work, instead of volunteer, and I didn't have the money to keep the program going 🥺
And before everyone attacks me, I know there's a lot of people that do good. I just couldn't find any in Vegas🥺 also, unfortunately the stigma around homeless and drug addicts is very negative, and while people say that they care about it, they might, but they don't act because they feel like they put themselves in that position🥺🥺
There are people like me who need help . Have the room to help someone, but reality hits hard when you live with a stranger. Most roommate scenarios end badly. It’s very difficult to bring broken people together and have them live functionally ? Mental illnesses and drug addictions make this situation even worse. Even when given shelter it usually ends with homelessness again.
I got my first taste of homelessness at the age of 20 I remember I went with my bag full of my clothes to long beach ,my first night I sat at the sand starring at clouds feeling unwanted.i remember it was pretty sad.
Wanted y’all to know that terry lee willams from rocky mount NC-43 that is on this documentary is my son he passed away today 8 ,21,2020 we will miss him love you son
Randall Weeks That's really bad news. So sorry to hear this, my condolences.
I'm so sorry for your loss, but glad you at least know what became of him. 💔🙏
We see someone driving a nice car and wearing nice clothes and we assume they are well-off. The same way we see persons on the street and think they are addicts and lazy.
Life is full of assumption. What we need is education about life circumstances and that is what this video is giving us so that we can shift from the lane of assuming to knowing.
They are probably in debt over their heads. Bad decisions can lead to bad circumstances. Moral of the story: Don't live above your means!
I can't walk good or stand good but I have shared with people when I can from my window. I ask,. What's your story? Then we chat. Once a man wore a sign hungry so I grabbed two bags of drive thru and took it back to him. We chatted for ten fifteen minutes and he was off on his bike again. He migrates on his bicycle twice a year from Penn to florida. Alone. I'm perfectly amazed at the human spirit
all of these amazing people are very well educated and sound like they know a lot more than any other person I have met. People shouldn't judge you never know what someone's situation is.
Unfortunately who what’s to do homeless sober 😭my heart breaks for them all. No one should ever have to sleep on the streets ect everyone should have a safe place 🙏🏻💞
Sending love to all the homeless God please let them find homes this is no way to live you brought them here in this world for a reason not this way please Lord have mercy Amen
I'm disabled homeless veteran also, it sucks
Thank you for your service to our country sir
Thank you for your service David.I am a 20 year veteran of the USNavy. Have you looked into the veterans services in your area to try to get you housing. They are in every area but some people don’t know about. Call the town hall in your area and they can get you in touch with the Vet rep for your area. There are many outreach programs that you may be eligible for. Good luck my friend.🙏😊
Me too my friend its a struggle, its hard ,iam a veteran we come back and have to fight another war ... praying ... for a way out ..iam fighting to get my benefits ...
It’s actually harder to give a dollar to a homeless person today because we don’t carry money, we just have ATM cards. The only reason the whole world isn’t cashless is because too many poor people can’t get bank accounts and ATM cards. Everyone should have a Universal Basic Income.
Please show more with women and children who are homeless.
What gets me is all the garbage. I’ve watched a lot of these videos and they all have disgusting amounts of garbage all over the place in these camps. It’s absolutely disgusting.
They can’t afford trash service
Mr Caldwell needs to be a speaker...he has a nice voice and is very smart..
i dont understand how ppl are forced to go fight a war the government started, then they get kicked out to a life of homelessness due to PTSD when the war was what caused the PTSD in the first place
I’ll tell you how:
Step One: Your most highly decorated vets come back and the “P” in PTSD kicks in and then....
Step Two: They still have some time left on their enlistment and start having an Article 15 here or there, just minor stuff but definitely related to the war so....
Step Three: What does this country do when it has a large standing military and the wars are over? Hmmmm, hey here’s an idea!
Step Four: Give ‘em an Administrative Discharge, an End-Run around a Court Martial because ya don’t have crap to court martial them with but *now* you get rid of them without having to acknowledge YOU BROKE THEM so you don’t have to pay them any benefits! Eureka!
Step Five: Now you got rid of “them” and also completely violated the contract you signed with them when they enlisted, but ohwell, “shit happens.”
Step Six: Act oh-so-sad when you learn they became drug addicts/homeless/committed suicide etc.
*Who could ever have predicted THAT outcome/s.*
God bless and keep you in his loving arms.
My prayers to those folks who are homeless man there's nothing much I can do...I would love too I'm from India I even lost my jobs due to covid barely trying to survive ..
My prayers to you folks
God help and show some mercy
Beautiful 💕 God bless .
HOMELESS PEOPLE WE NEED A LOVE AND PEOPLE HELP HUMANKIND NESS SHARE YOUR BLESSINGS RICH PEOPLE YOU ARE LUCKY MORE OPPORTUNITIES
anyone know any raw homeless documentary, not just talking to them but following them around on their daily routine?
What amazed me is how that these people manage to keep their places so clean and neat,, gave me an completely different take on homeless people, here where I stay (SA) most of the homeless tend to be of a completely different social stance (much lower,) Here most of the homeless you have every reason to be scared of (they are usually serious criminals) but these people just seemed to have very bad luck and are just normal, every day people like you or me
I hope all these people find a place to be safe and happy! There people who deserve the best in life! There human beings who are down on there luck and will come out of this situation! Your not invisible your people that deserve housing and a good start in life again!
Exactly my friend the same here its a battle we deal with Every day ...
God bless you for your love and kindness.
I was homeless 5 years . That's how long it took because I did myself. If I would have waited for the government I would been homeless another 5
I have been there, I owned absolutely nothing but the clothes on my back but one day I woke up and said that I was sick of being hungry, sick of being cold and tired of being alone so I decided then and there I was not going to live like that a moment longer so I put myself through school and graduated with honors with a degree in education which in turn led to a great career. I cannot count the numbers of times I wanted to quit but I somehow made it, that was over 40 years ago and thanks to my stubbornness and perseverance, I made it and was able to lead and live a great life.
This really moved me & touched my heart - my GOD! I'd like to know how I can HELP???
Shawn Codwell said a MOUTH FULL. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU. JESUS SAID THAT THE LEAST YOU HAVE DONE UNTO THEM YE HAVE ALSO DONE TO ME. NOW ASK YOUR SELF, WHAT HAVE I DONE? HELPED OR HURT.
A broke my back at the age of 25 while working. The man I worked for advertised he was insured but wasn’t. Now I’m a single dad with two kids and my son is autistic. This could be me and my kids. Lucky I own my home that I was able to pay cash for that was a unbelievable good deal but before I got this place we stayed in some shit holes because I couldn’t afford a lot for rent.
Greed plays a huge part , in why people are homeless.
Great video helps me not bitch over simple things
It's sad that these people have to go throw this and best wishes for them all I love hearing story's like this because it can happen to anyone and we need to stop judging the homeless and try to help them same way I have shared this on my Facebook page I hope someone would watch this video and help the homeless 😢❤
GOD BLESS YOU!
Who still in quarantine 2021
Thank you for all you do!
Someone serves 8 yrs and we can't do better for them? Hard to hear. I always give some money. Few dollars might change someone's life.
I was almost murdered by my army husband. Got kicked in the streets homeless by the army. after the abuser got arrested and charged. Was hell in a foreign country, no family, no money. Had to take the first job I could get my hands on, first one 48 hr shift, second job 7 nights week. I found an old lady to babysit my kids overnight le5 me pay her when I got my first pay she was a life saver, couldn't work without childcare. she was wonderful. Borrowed money for 2 campbeds. I worked at night slept in my car during the day.
Saved saved for months sleeping in my car until i had deposits. Got us a crappy apt. Worked my way up. Trained in corrections to get enough money to feed my kids pay the bills.
Everyone who isn't rich is a couple paychecks away from the streets. For women we have childcare money to find hundreds a month. It's hell.
8:35 thats a real issue for places which implement extensive outreach to homeless ppl, you get a lot of homeless tourists
At the 24:44 mark if you look over the guys right shoulder, it looks like their is a black bear in the frame for almost 2 seconds.
Shadow in the tent
Beautiful documentary
it's going to be the middle class who end up homeless and these are the same ones who won't be able to get any help because they are just above the poverty level leaving them with no government help
Hurts my heart 2 see this.
❤🙏 To u all had tears in my eyes watching this.
Keep Moving Forward...
To all you Great Guys
Thank you.

Where is the money going?
Victoria Lee great question... unfortunately the monies allocated to help the homeless are being pocketed by the politicians, some of it gets redirected to other projects!
Hey Victoria,
The money is going to non-profits!
If you want to learn more, take a look at Watchmen of The Streets' website:
watchmenofthestreets.com
It is a non-prof ministry based out of Charlotte, NC
Tax cuts, is a big chunk that is no longer around. Military spending is always a whopper, politicians, private industry funding and research like pharmaceutical companies, healthcare entitlement programs, veterans,Social Security, Disability, education. Victoria I am not being too funny by saying all of that, but I just don't think it matters to our country where the money goes. The homeless got to find a way at this point. They just got to find a way. With Covid situation I know they better find a way.There is going to be way more attractive people competing to collect money.
Politics/politicians/government.... and I'm not talking about welfare, I'm talking about the big heads that pocket the money before It goes to people that need it.... obviously... And here's the disgusting result of it.. look at how many veterans that have served our country that are homeless...We ought to be ashamed of ourselves 😡... Misappropriation of money is always the number one reason. I'm in Las Vegas Nevada and there was a horrific shooting at Mandalay Bay (I'm sure you heard a few years ago about it)....Las Vegas got over 30 million dollars of donations that were supposed to be doled out separately to shooting victims and their families..... Well all of a sudden, they only account for $900,000 being given to actual families and their victims, so where's all the rest of the money 🤷🤷🤷
Ashley Weber-davis that’s the same ol story with politicians and/or government, one thing we know for sure is their annual salary doesn’t fit their lifestyle! 👍
I got anxiety and depression
So many nice people...
I wish all of them would get some help.
It is really true. Most of the homeless ones is the most caring and giving people on earth.
Companies should build homes for this. This would be a good investment for everyone.
It would be less crimes, less health issues, less sick people, less unemployed, means much more money for the whole community.
Housing is the first thing that has to be done.
The logic is just so easy to see. Is there only a few that can see this?
Whent to calli to see my doughter and got a job in one week and she treated me like a p of shit and met a homeless guy and we talked and he was nicer to me then my own kid
This was excellent. Our furry Set Free does this back home...this is my goal n you gave me some great ideas. My mom did thisfor homeless in Vegas for years. I need to get started here in Arksnsas, we are from CA...I want to help locally but more so we need to help get to our state gov as well as to the white House. This can I help? Lets make a big shift for our people. ❤❤❤
I love this.
I am really upset by the red tape and system of "affordable housing". What the hell does that even mean! All other housing is unaffordable so in a short time many many families will be either up to their ears in debt or homeless.That is no way to build this country and it's morale.America better get it's act together by making any effort a family makes pay off. At this point the system kicks folks when there down, this must stop now. These are our fellow human beings. Shame on us!
I agree but it seems no matter how much money you throw at the homeless problem (billions) nothing changes. They don’t want to change
Hope for all 🙏
