Being homeless is not the people’s choice. Still, sometimes, as a result of some unfortunate events like loss of a job, debt, illness, mortgage, or no money to pay rent, homelessness is inevitable.
In that kind of situation, the streets are the only alternative where the homeless sleep, look for some food in the trash, and they become invisible for the passing crowd. Then things get worse for those who can’t get out of this situation quickly.
The founder of non-profit Beddown, Norm McGillivray, came up with an incredible idea while walking through an empty parking lot. He thought it is the perfect space for a pop-up shelter. So he was persistent and gave the idea a go.
There is no need to watch my back here.
I can sleep all night safely and away from drugs.
