Feeding the Homeless


A few weeks ago a small group got together at my house and we made 200 sack lunches for the homeless people living on the streets of down town Las Vegas. It was a great experience. It was also very depressing to see tent after tent of homeless people. After we assembled the lunches we drove down town and walked along the streets handing them out. Once the food was just about gone, then we delivered the last 20 or so to the homeless veterans shelter near by. When we got to the shelter we were told "thank God you didn't get caught". Apparently it is a $300 fine to feed the homeless, compliments of Mayor Goodman. I'm glad we didn't get in trouble for doing something good to those in need. Plus I would have felt very guilty for having the bright idea.
