Connections

This section is the heart and soul of Homeful.org. Providing food, clothing and shelter are all important and necessary in alleviating the difficulties of homelessness, but in the wealthiest society in the world, these conditions are more often just symptoms of a deeper problem.

Oftentimes, the greatest gift we can give is the simple gift of listening - to take the time to simply be present with another person and to hear what it is that they have to say. In this space, not only is it possible that we might catch a glimpse of some of the deeper issues, but it's also likely that in this same very process, we might discover a piece of our own deeper humanity.

In this section, volunteer writers have taken the step of meeting up with a homeless person to listen to their stories, and are sharing them with us. If you are interested in becoming a writer, please contact us.
