- On Sunday, April 28, 2024, Daisy, also known as the Venice Healer, (@UniteTheSuperheros ) along with her fiancé Jeff Kupers and a team of volunteers, stepped in to support the community by feeding the homeless on the Venice Beach Boardwalk. This initiative came as a response to the illness of Dan Hubbard, the founder and CEO of Oasis, who was recently sidelined and unable to continue his work.
Daisy and Jeff began their day early, using the Oasis van to collect donated food items from Whole Foods and Vons. They then transported these provisions to Venice Beach, where volunteers were ready to distribute them. The assortment of donated food included fresh fruits and vegetables, pastries, cookies and desserts, baked breads, and various protein options.
The couple plans to continue this vital service, providing meals to the unhoused while Dan is recovering. Their efforts align with the broader mission of Oasis Network, which has a long-standing tradition of reaching out to the homeless, not only on weekends at Venice Beach but also on weekdays in Redondo.
Oasis Network benefits from generous food donations from stores like Whole Foods, Vons, Sprouts, Bonds, Walmart, and Grocery Outlet. Their approach goes beyond mere food distribution; they also offer emotional and spiritual support, including biblical teachings before meals, and they spend time engaging with the community to better understand and address their needs.
Through decades of dedicated service, Oasis Network has established itself as a vital advocate for the unhoused, connecting them with essential social services and fostering a sense of community and empowerment among volunteers, including those who are themselves experiencing homelessness. This inclusivity and commitment to empowerment underscore the transformative impact of Oasis Network's work on the Venice Boardwalk and beyond.

It's about time she did something worthwhile for her cause instead of taking off her top and obstructing clean up.
She was using her boobs as weapons. She called it the "care bear stare". I'm not sure how effective they were.
Different character when she ain’t high af…
Somehow Daisy found the time and money to get a BBL......lol.
Wow - is Jeff fine with the fact that Daisy doesn't believe in monogamy? Is he paying for her upcoming surgery too?
She did get a BBL. In my opinion her butt looked better before.
There's a reason why she doesn't have her children. Do you think she can bring her children around a bunchow's people? Her mother is right. She's to step up. I correct, I'll even think our French can help her. But Daisy, look what you're doing. It's very nice to hear feeding the homeless. But at the same time, do you want your children back?
Have your children on the boardwalk or a bunch of ex-con who knows what they are?Think about it You are going in a wrong direction.If you want to have kids, there's no way you can have your kids.On the boardwalk god bless
She KNOWS she can’t raise her kids. She doesn’t want that….she WANTS to SEE them and hug them….thats it! And she deserves that! Her mother is wrong to turn her kids away from her and eventually her boys will see the light and will see their mother! Her mother has cut her off completely and sees nothing but the past. Daisy is all about healing now. Everyone who knows her loves her.
What a miserable situation these people live in. That's very sad.
Oasis, you are amazing! God bless
Why do people keep bringing up this woman getting her kids back? She will never get her kids back she has lost not just custody, but her rights. Once you loose your rights thats it, and another thing she beat her kids. The kids are scared of her. I will say on this video she seems to be not as high as usual so, maybe she can stay helping with the food drive, but her kids are no more. She would be lucky to even have supervised visits. Thats what happens when you physically beat your kids. She doesn't need her kids.
Agree
“Judge not, lest ye be judged”
That’s her business.
Instead of shooting arrows, help her out. If not , live your life and watch a different channel if you choose.
@JackSellasss Folk get paid millions doing the same and they are idol worshiped lol
@@FishDonkey626If she does not want people in her business, she shouldn't be all over TH-cam putting people in it. This is the comment section where people comment.
Out with the old Jeffrey...in with the new Older Jeff hahaha
Wow $6,000 for butt implants lol lol
She just a show piece
keep it real
It might be better if Daisy would get inside the van for her bong hits
I don't care what anyone says about Daisy, She has a good heart and a good Soul! I love her!!
Yeah she only wants the best for everyone, Carnt stand the negitive people on here.
Moi aussi ❤...😊🕊️
@JackSellasss..don't watch her then.
@JackSellasss...well carrying on watching but stop complaining
❤❤❤❤🎉💯😎🌊🌊🌊🔥🐲🤘🖤🌅
Finally, Daisy wore her flip flop 🥰
It's nice to see daisy focused.
not completely, but indeed she does seem much more lucid, not running around going on and on about super hero's and care bears, hopefully she is finally taking her meds properly, only time will tell if she improves...
Fabian asks her how people can donate to Oasis And she gives a rambling reply about getting butt implants.
Good to see her on her medication and off the drugs.
She's not been anything but focused for quite some time.
did she down a few valiums?
she has to over do it
When Daisy puffs that bong ,she sure changes into a completely different person.
Yes when she's not drugged
she is a actress
She’s one talented actress, if that’s the case :3
Very constructive and positive video, and I’ve never seen Daisy this rationale and focused ❤
She’s amazingly focused and calm, coherent today.
Wow!❤, what a different Daisy, looking so very beautiful and no naked feet, getting involved helping feed the homeless, nice fresh groceries, Daisy has left me speechless!👍💖!. Thank you, Daisy, you are beautiful, in and out!!!!!.....😊
It's amazing what a sober head is capable of!
That's how multiple personality disorder, or DID works. She has parts. Its it's cause by childhood trauma.
She’s always sober. 😂🙄
I always w/ hard worker, like Daisy is!! I admire her so much! 👍👌!
Wow, like night and day, she’s focused AND well spoken.
SO LUCID, COGENT, UNIFIED -- SANE!!
Your such a differnt person when you have a purpose in life struture makes a big difference in your life thats what you need daisey struture x😅
She is off drugs 👍….and wearing shoes!….
Daisy is the coolest chick in California
Totally 💯🤘✨️
Im comeing venice beach from uk for a holiday and im going to meet you 😅
sorry to say this but i think this food bank should be only for homeless people that are actually homeless because that lady in the orange hat was not 35:30
Google: Homeless Industrial Complex
Yeah, looks like she's out shopping.
It's not only for the homeless. You missed the part where daisy was talking about people with fridges. You can have a roof and be starving. Especially in USA
About time lazy Daisy done something😂 still sounding like a wounded bird😂
They ask who to donate to....yous did not give dans info.......pay attention.......pay fn attention......peanut headsets
Daisy if you get your 🍑done, make sure they don’t botch your procedure ok. And don’t get them too big, because you’re already beautiful as is 👍🏽💯🥰
When I came across her videos a long time ago, I used to say to myself, what a beautiful woman and what a. E came across this video today in its absolutely incredible to see that she's doing so much better, and she's trying to make a change in her community, which is a lot more than I can say for a lot of individuals, politicians, including Newsome. This video was actually very touching from the. bottom of my heart, I hope she continues to realize that she is special. She matters and she is important, and she continues to do well for herself.💞😇😇😇😇
Well said. 100% agree.
I'm sorry, shes gonna save a life??? She isn't GOD...She needs a reality check!!!
Doctors, nurses, and firefighters aren't God either. They save lives all the time. Feeding the starving saves lives too, or did you not read the Bible where Jesus did exactly that, exactly that way, and then later said greater things than I have done you will also do? Stupid post. You should recalculate.
@@HerrinSchadenfreude You probably need to give me scripture and verse for a woman who is almost topless healing anybody..
Maybe you need to read the WORD for yourself..
Shouldn't the food be in soy based containers rather than plastic containers made with fossil fuels? ⚠🚮
They don’t package the food. It’s donated from stores. Bring that up with them if you’re concerned.
@@BarryWinner2075 I care more about feeding the hungry. Talk to the greedy corporate companies who are responsible for the containers and have the power to change it, not to a simpleton like me.
@@Allisonswonderland247 Why don't you feed the hungry with food on soy based paper plates?
@@BarryWinner2075 It’s not my calling. I don’t have the resources to do what’s necessary to help.
@@BarryWinner2075why don’t you?
I don’t feed the homeless because I’m inherently selfish & can barely help myself, lol
Looking forward to the day when SMCU stops focusing on the transplants, and gets to interview the real locals that created the mystique of Venice. Hope to see him filming a Dog Town punk rock beach party some day (with all the hot skateboarding and surfing girls of Venice), that we still do without the transplants that are co-oping our legend.
Daisy could have hung around with that crew if she succeeded as a prospect, I guess she wasn't a contender
Sad to see all the seniors. FJB
Judge not, lest you be judged! Daisy could live in Hollywood and bathe in luxury. But can wealth bring happiness to everyone? Each person has his own destiny and his own calling along the path of good deeds. I wish everyone to meet good and kind people on their path . Good luck ❤
Good job, y'all!!
Fabian…. Thank you for capturing what Daisy is really like. Ever since I met her that first day on the beach and we became friends, I knew she wasn’t how most people see her. I’m proud to be her friend and I see a great future for her. I’ll be in Venice in a couple of weeks and you’ll finally be getting your Rock!
@@xx-vw9ep Too bad that’s not all she inherited from them. It wasn’t all good. She deserves more understanding. THAT is something her mother could learn from her.
Daisy has a good heart I WISH THE BEST FOR HER.
She is a great help and support to the people who are in bad time's god bless the poor people and bless those who are happy to help them out and god bless you Daisey 🙏 keep doing more ❤❤l❤
lol
daisy firing up the waterpipe?.... priceless!!!
Its crazy the amount of hate Daisy gets...she dont pay my bills, so she can live as free and be who she is! The ones hating are giving her the most attention lol! It says more about YOU then her! I find her entertaining and nobody really knows her....
@@winstonwhiteside9525 lol why you mad...
I love you daisy you have a wonderful heart and a great soul you are God's angel🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love Dasie to pieces she's the best be safe Daisy peace ✌️
She not going to make it u giving to much to one person rember u have lot of people
Holy crap my man you got your hands full😂 anyone with that much energy to marry Daisy wow good luck
Good job Daisy 👍 She's still crazy, but now she is helping. This is much better than building wooden boxes that end up in the trash.
this is America
Don’t catch you slippin’ now
@@PauloHernandezXD 😆
United state America 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That look a bunch of cake and cookies
Can appreciate these initiatives - we all share this living moment in time - not has to be more difficult then what it is.
(no but implants needed daisy) Ridiculous.
Finally Daisy is acting human…..hope it continues
Daisy please dont do implants dont do it stay as you are to much 😢
If that's your boyfriend why are you homeless? He SHOULD be taking better care of you.
Butt implants & another fiancé what???? She's focused & clear until she's not. I don't know how to take her 🤷🏻♀️ -with a grain of salt my mom used to say 😉
Daisy made it a 1:14 before she said something crazy. Congrats on the new record, girl! I know you can do this.
She is using the homeless it's about time for her to give back. What a hypocritical person.
She is using the homeless as her stepping stones.
@@BarryWinner2075100%.
Daisy, make God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit clear to Dan and others. Speaking with Law Enforcement about some of the homeless people, is not a way to help those in need.
Feed them....and they will come ?¿
SHES sharp today.
😮WOW I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. I FEEL SO BAD FOR ALL THE THINGS I COMMENTED ABOUT DAISY BUT SEEING AND HEARING HER NOW I SEE THAT SHE'S SO KIND AND CARING 😊 SHE'S NOT CRAZY LIKE I COMMENTED 😢 SHE IS WHAT I CALL A WONDERFUL PERSON SO FULL OF SURPRISES.❤❤❤ I DON'T BELIEVE SHE'S HOMELESS SHE IS JUST A KIND ANGEL HELPING THE NEEDY. YOU GO BEAUTIFUL 😍👍 KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GOD BLESS YOU❤
How can she afford butt in plants? She can't take care of her kids. What did she get boom and plants too whose pain for all this
Great job well done guys! So glad Godess Daisy is there w/her healing powers and spread the love. Blessings to all.
This must be Daisy's twin sister. It's amazing how much they look alike.
She not always like this and I see her so often and this is tripping me out she is normal oh my god 😱
I didn't know Danny Trejo is homeless on the beach now ^.^
Si il y avais plus de belle personne d ame genereuse joyeuse devant toutes la populations qui vivent dans ce monde comme DAISY , l entraide et de debrouillardise , je ne juge personne etant francais mais heureux de voir des personne au gand coeur comme daisy.
Daisy's new beau may be just the person to tame her and help her settle down a bit. I've had strong opinions because my daughter was part of the Venice Beach homeless for awhile and so I have 2nd-hand first-hand knowledge. I'm pretty sure she thinks my comments are critical of her and we all know she's really not available for that...but it's said with love...tough love. She makes it easy to criticize the choices she makes....but lately, I see a calmer, more grounded in reality Daisy and despite her flaws, it looks good on her
No I think she could even annoy him!
Yeah, obviously the average person couldn't tolerate an overload. It's probably wishful thinking on my part. She's so far out there that most people wouldn't be able to live with that much Daisy
Smoking the Bong gives her Superpowers?
I don’t see the IN LOVE body language between Lindsay and the new Jeff
Looks to me more like a business relationship he's a salesman and sees the potential in her to make big bucks in his investment.
The Cowboy has found Venice Beach
Daisy deserves huge respect! Such an amazing being!
Bullshit
people learn from this video and learn how to help feed people in your local area and become the change you want to see
Is that Daisy healing everything with a meth blast? Sick😂
Is she smoking pot right there in the middle of the sidewalk??
Well this is a different fella than Prince the husband with the bicycle that used to be present...
Daisy to piękna kobieta !
Pity she doesn't focus on her kids.
Dont do implsnts daisey iv heard its a bad thing dont do it you are who you are x
Community service hours
Daisy you are doing great! 🙏🏻❤⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I see her alot wish her luck that's it and that is all
Charity leaders should take homeless to their houses 👍👍👍👍
Gross she would not touch my food🤢
His fiancee Daisy.....lol.
Daisy es una niña grande 😂
🇨🇵C'est bien ce que tu fais... dieu te le rendra.. daisy ❤
peace to you daisy peace to the world and to everyone peace
IS THIS CALL A ILLNESS PEOPLE ?
Remember one think about tattoos:
"Ink is not a cocktai🍹"
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Shes nuts
I miss Perfect Prince!
No milk?
Dear channel author, thank you for your videos. This series is simply incredible. Daisy demonstrates great humanity and you completely conveyed this to us. Thank you!
Maybe Daisy should run for Office! 😄😁
i knew this was your calling to help people and you do it with so much passion compassion and sencerity
Daisey 🗣️📢🤪😜🥜🐿️
You lost me at the universe told me I am going to save him. You can't help anyone that doesnt want help, and then you can only help them. If they want your help, ask for your help, and then you can only help them to be able to help themselves.
