In todays world there are many homeless. People struggle to find jobs, shelter, and even love. We could save half of the world or more is homeless.

Additionally, the statistics also show that the homeless population in Savannah fluctuates between 1,000 and 4,000 people (savannahga.gov). To say I was surprised by this information would be a lie.

I see the Mother’s with their signs, begging for…
