Sharing details below for anyone that may feel motivated to give similarly in their community. ⬇️
💛 We arrived with: water bottles, chips, granola bars, (easy open) canned fish, bananas, wool socks & beanies, emergency blankets, Kleenex packets, toothbrushes + toothpaste, and cash in $10’s.
💛 Top items desired were: water, bananas, granola bars, socks, and Kleenex packets (and also cash).
💛 Emphasizing the fact that all humans are humans. While we’re not always able to give cash or necessities away - interacting and engaging with unhoused folks (like you do with anyone else around the city) is equally as important. Acknowledge them, share a smile, a hello…reminding them that they matter, that they are seen, and that they are cared about.
💛 Let’s be more direct in our giving.

Thank you @/kenzies_knots, @/david.kirchnerr, @/b.a.rowe, and @/briana.online for helping create & guide these socks 🙂💘
The excitement, happiness, and gratitude that these humans shared with us after receiving a pair of socks was so tremendously moving in itself, that I realized the project didn’t need to be more than just exchanging those special moments (which is why I decided to end the video series). 🙂
Each human that we engaged with for a video gave almost identical answers.
That in fact, joy was in the smallest and most simple things and the most important thing to them was Love. 💛
“Have patience.”
“Keep loving each other.”
“Never give up.”
