The Problem

I am trying to help provide the homeless people of West Tennessee an opportunity to further their educational needs and provide them with a safe environment in which they may sleep, shower, and eat. I want to help them with loving warmth and care to show them that there is hope in this cut throat world. I want everyone who enters this place to believe that if they did not have family before, that they have a family in us.

Plan of Action

My plan of action is to start off simple. It is going to begin with other volunteers and I am going to donate food and volunteer at the local homeless shelter. From there I am going earn and raise money to begin my own homeless shelter. From this point I want to expand my ideas and start up more than just one homeless shelter. In these homeless shelters, I am going to provide food, water, beds, and at least a simple education. I want to try to help them get on their feet and teach them life skills. This is my initial plan to start this homeless project.
