For my I Was Here senior project, I held a shoe drive through Brown Bag Ministry in order to make a difference in the community. I handed out shoes to the homeless at Oak City Outreach Center in downtown Raleigh. I have been a volunteer at Brown Bag Ministry since 2016 and seen the miracles that happen every Saturday. On April 22nd, 2017, Brown Bag Ministry made their 1 millionth bagged lunch and I was there to witness it. In all 12 years, there has been only one Saturday that was missed.
This link takes you to the Brown Bag Ministry website for more information about the organization.
This link is my bibliography for the notes that I found on homelessness.
