Overview
Although there is no guaranteed method of solving homelessness there are
ways you can enhance the chances for a better community.
· Volunteering is a great way to give
back to your community. There are many
shelters in Sacramento that would appreciate the extra help. Some other ways of volunteering are food
drives, school help, and donating old clothes.
· A lot of fundraisers are formed
through shelters or even online.
Crowdfunding is a popular way to get/receive funds or go directly to sources
such as the National Homelessness Law Center (https://homelesslaw.org/).
· Going to City Hall is a great way to
understand what the city is doing and how certain rules affect
homelessness. Asking questions and participating
during these meetings can also bring more awareness.
· You can join campaigns and with
elections coming up there will be more campaigns rising for potential
candidates. This benefits both sides and
you’ll be participating within the community.
· Educating the youth about money
management and how the stock market works in relation to the economy is
important because these are vital tips everyone should know. With how the market is doing right now it is
crucial that the youth recognizes and studies what is happening.
