PENNIES FROM KEVAN FOUNDATION

"If the rich, the super rich, could find love to give we could end poverty.
This could be paradise ... no more competition ... one human family all
working together." Kevan Isaacs

They’re "couch surfing" with friends, sleeping in cars, abandoned buildings, libraries, train & bus stations, on the streets … places not intended for people to live.

On any given day or night, homeless children, adults and families across our country are living and sleeping in places and situations most of us could not imagine.

Their existence is a daily struggle for everything most of us take for granted: food, clothing, shelter, safety, family and healthcare.

They’re in cities, suburbs, rural areas, neighborhoods, college towns. Literally everywhere. And many are 'hiding' in plain sight.

They shiver in the cold, suffer in the heat, and frequently deal with loneliness and depression.

There are many situations that lead to homelessness … broken families,
financial difficulties, drug or alcohol addiction, mental health issues.
Sometimes, there are multiple issues at play.

Many organizations are working to help the homeless through shelters, religious institutions, school programs, and food pantries.
Yet the needs are growing faster than services can be provided.
From food and clothing to personal care items and medical care, more help is desperately needed.

At Pennies From Kevan Foundation ('PFKF'), we're doing our part by providing funding to local providers
of these services in the Philadelphia and Los Angeles areas, so that more needs can be met.

Join us throughout the year, including for our annual “Homeless For The Holidays” events each December, where we raise funds to help those we may never see but whose needs are constant and undeniable.

All tax deductible donations will be used to fund local agencies that provide food, clothing, and shelter to homeless children, teens, adults and families.
