I admire the work of Rachon Shavers who is the founder of 381 Memphis which is located in Memphis Tennessee who is using her talents as a certified chef to do her part to keep her daughter and her volunteers who work with her inside of her home to give away care packages to the homeless.
Rachon and her volunteer group work in the mornings on Saturday and Sunday giving away items ranging from food to basic needs of cleansing by having her volunteers give away around 100 packages on their road trips where the homeless are located.
Rachon is setting an example for her daughter and her volunteer group not to thumb their nose at the homeless community not to mention give her group something to do while school is closed due to the Coronavirus pandemic began in the U S in the middle of March.
Rachon admits that at this time she needs more volunteers and donations from the corporations and citizens in Memphis and the surrounding areas to keep her mission of assisting the homeless community alive.

the homeless community here keeps getting the boot and moved, because no one wants them near, it's really sad

That is what I like about Rachon. She does labor of love without the nationwide publicity.

@Nakitakona That is true since God's Word says helping someone who is homeless is like helping Him.

Based on the stories that I know of based on my experiences as well as others, the homeless person really appreciates all of the help they can get from any donation.
