When you hear the word HOMELESS,
what comes to mind?
Probably not this:
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. |

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