Overview
I was homeless and sleeping on the streets for over ten years. I was recently housed through a social service agency and am now ready to start working on my goals!
My goals are to obtain stable housing and obtain employment.
I need a bed to sleep on because I am currently sleeping on the floor.
Meeting this need will help me because I currently do not have an income and am unable to afford a bed. This will help me move forward by maintaining a good night sleep so I can awake in the morning refreshed and ready to look for work.
Need funded!
Thank you for helping Dwayne fund this need.

Each need is validated by a nonprofit that knows the person and can verify that the help is necessary. Funds flow from Benevolent to the nonprofit, which then gets them to the person in need and lets us know how it went.

Dwayne has been a registered guest at the EDSSC and receiving services since 2009. Dwayne has recently gone from homeless to housed. He was able to obtain some household items, but is still in need of a bed. It would be wonderful to see Dwayne receive this help so he can continue his path to self-sufficiency.
