My idea for Project One is centered around homelessness, and how truly helping a homeless person can change the future. One example of this is when barbers donate their services to the homeless. They help to clean these people up which not only builds confidence, but opens doors to other opportunities as well (because let’s face it, a person’s appearance does matter to an extent).
Helping to take care of and guide one another is beneficial to society as whole. Getting people off the streets is good for the economy, and allows people to do other things with their time. Less soup kitchens and homeless shelters would be needed, meaning those employees and volunteers could spend their time in other ways and those buildings could be used for new businesses or business expansions. It’s a domino effect.
Giving someone enough money to buy dinner is kind. Giving someone a job opportunity, a temporary home, or even just a confidence boost is life changing.
