This is Cecil, and to say he was excited about his new pair of Nike’s would be the understatement of the year. Cecil kept everyone organized and in line as we were handing out supplies. Cecil made sure others who were asleep, woke up, and came over to get some goodies. Cecil was telling everyone how good they looked when they put on the shirts we gave them. I hope to Cecil again and hopefully when we get our shower trailer on the streets. Would love to get Cecil on video and help change the image of what the masses believe the homeless to be. Thank you so much to everyone who donated to our nonprofit and allows us to help those experiencing homelessness. Have a beautiful Friday and please stay safe.

Greg’s smile tells you how happy he was when he opened the box and saw a new pair of Nike’s ! When Greg first came over he was not talking and just nodding. I noticed his shoes looked rough and asked him what size he wore. After opening the box, Greg was smiling and talking a mile a minute. It is so amazing seeing how much a pair of shoes can change a persons perspective. Thank you so much to everyone following our page, leaving comments, and donating to our nonprofit. We are so grateful for y’all.

This is Blake and was so great meeting this amazing soul. Blake recently had major surgery on his left leg and foot. He told me the doctors wanted to amputate but he wanted surgery instead. Showed me the massive scar on his upper thigh. He was so grateful and had a great time talking with him. When his foot heals up we will have a new pair of size 14’s shoes for him. Thank you so much to all who support our nonprofit. Without your help, none of this would be possible. Have a great day my friends.

The first time we met Richard he was very shy but also very kind and complimented our Vice President Brie. The second time we met Richard his friends called him “Legend” and when we gave him new socks he showed us how his size 17 shoes were completely busted up. We posted a picture and within minutes one of our followers on social media messaged us that she ordered a pair of size 17 Nike’s and they were on the way. Richard’s eyes lit up when we handed him his new pair of shoes. If you live in Phoenix you can sometimes see him by the 10 Freeway offramp at 7th st. Please say hi to him if you see him.

We met Peter as he was writing poetry in the park. He spends most of his days writing and his goal is to eventually have his work get published.
