Street Charity isn’t an experiment we’re testing. It is a movement that’s already changing how dignity reach people in need.
“We knew that handing out dollar bills wasn’t the answer.
They were often used for drugs or alcohol instead of food.
I wondered why hungry people had to eat
also whatever the soup kitchen was serving.
Well, now hungry people can eat what they want —
when they want — with a big side-serving of dignity.
But here’s what we discovered: This movement is as much for all of us as it is for those in need.
We get to stop feeling helpless.
We get to be the generous person we want to be.
We get to know, without a doubt, that our generosity matters.
We get to be part of changing how we treat people.
That’s the real transformation.
Join us. You’re going to love how this feels.”
