Helping the Homeless
Group 2: #MoreOpportunitiesMoreSmiles
The Issue
Our issue is about people who are in need of shelter, causing them to have little food and no jobs. Homeless means a person is without a home, and therefore mainly living on streets.
They are dealing with many problems every day from hunger, storms, and things that make it hard without a permanent place to live. They live under bridges and places that can give little shelter but no privacy. We want to end homelessness, and remember more homes more smiles.
