Help the homeless. Thank you for helping the homeless. Thank you for caring for the homeless. Thank you for giving food to the homeless.
Dear Coalition for the Homeless: My name is Hannah. I am 8 years old. Ever since I moved to New York, I found it hard to look at homeless people because I felt bad. This summer, I decided to collect money by returning bottles for deposits. I collected $70.19. I hope you can find someone to give it to. From: Hannah
This was a note Maribella gave out with money she collected for homeless New Yorkers. Read her story here. “Dear _____, I’m giving you money because you need a house and food to [survive]. You might [be] able to get a [meal]. We collected this just for you, by picking up money from the ground. This might make you have a better life, cause we don’t want you to be homeless. Love, Maribella. We care about you”.
