Story

Dear Reader,

Despite never having personally experienced, or had any personal connection to, homelessness, I've always felt deeply saddened that certain individuals are unfortunate enough to experience it.

Sleeping rough, on the streets, must not only be physically exhausting and difficult, but also devastating for a person's mental state.

There is a stigma that all homeless people are criminals, or evil people who got there from their own doing. This couldn't be further from the truth. Often times it is those that society forgot that slip into homelessness. It's our job to remember them.

The charitable work of 300 blankets helps us all remember that these are real people like you and I, that feel the cold like you and I, and who have feelings and emotions like you and I.

A donation of $20 pays for 1 blanket to keep 1 human warm at night.

I kindly ask that you skip the takeaway dinner tomorrow night and donate that money instead.

Any contribution would be hugely appreciated by myself and the homeless person that receives your help.

Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to my charity of choice.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

Josh
