I launched a project to humanize the homeless!
Posted: Tue Apr 19, 2016 3:08 am
Hey everybody! I am new to the forum as a user but have been stalking advice and posts for moths now.
This last Wednesday I finally launched my project Fifty Sandwiches!
Fifty Sandwiches is a cross-country journey dedicated to presenting the public with a rare glimpse into the lives and stories of America’s homeless. Their unique and unheard experiences will be captured in a book and called Fifty Sandwiches.
The Plan:
Toss a mattress in a van and travel the country interviewing members of the homeless population. Each face, sandwich, and story, will be documented extensively in Fifty Sandwiches.
The goal is to close the gap between perception and reality, collecting unique splices of life along the way. I will be traveling city to city, offering to take homeless people out for a free meal in exchange for an interview. Well, more of just a casual chat between strangers rather than interviews. As each chat progresses, these talks will evolve into a dynamic collection of life struggles, stories, and philosophies from a population that is rarely given a voice.

Check out the page and tell me what you think! And any $1 dollar donors I will happily donate $1 back to your campaign:)
Please come at me with any feedback, criticism, suggestions, etc! Anything & everything is appreciated! Thanks guys!
