We can’t solve the homeless crisis. But we can offer CONSISTENT RELIEF in the interim — each and every week, without fail.

What we Do
We create weekly backpacks filled with basic human essentials. We drive directly to where our elderly/disabled adults live, often on the outskirts of *Skid Row where services are slim to none.
We Take Action
We serve the poorest of communities. We can’t solve the homeless problem. But we DO fill in the gaps where other service providers leave off. We provide for their pets, too.
Established in the 1930s, Skid Row is the largest permanent homeless encampment in the U.S. with 5,000 extreme poor living on its sidewalks as of 2024. This 50 square-block area has virtually NO bathrooms, water fountains, showers and known for its condensed un-housed population. Hundreds of pets live among them that also need real care. We are a consistent, regular presence there.
