The Road Home
There are a lot of homeless people that have no where to go or live. I wanted to help these people. I found a place online called The Road Home. This is an organization that give homeless people a place to stay, food, blankets and much more. I donated a few blankets to this place so more people can be happy.

"The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson |
“It's not enough to have lived.
We should be determined to live for something. May I suggest that it be creating joy for others, sharing what we have for the betterment of personkind, bringing hope to the lost and love to the lonely.” ― Leo Buscaglia |
The Problem
There are many problems when it comes to homeless people. A prime example of this is people living on the streets with absolutely nothing. In Salt Lake City there are a lot of people on the streets.

This problem needs to be fixed because everyone should be able to live a good life and not spend it on the streets.

What I did to Help
I helped by going to a website called amazon smile. This website is just like amazon except whenever you buy something it donates some money to a charity of your choice. So I bought some blankets off of amazon smile and then I donated it to the charity The Road Home.
