The Homeless Voice

The Homeless Voice houses, feeds, and finds jobs for anyone who is homeless. They serve 500 homeless daily and serve over 45,000 meals each month.

The Homeless Voice distributes a street newspaper in Florida on street corners of Broward, Dade, Hillsborough, Orange, Polk, and Palm Beach Counties. The Homeless Voice Newspaper has three functions:
  1. Educate the public on homelessness and poverty issues
  2. Provide temporary employment to those without a job
  3. Raise additional funds for the Florida based shelter

​View archives of past issues of The Homeless Voice Newspaper here.
