Because our Christmas Feed the Homeless event was such a success, we decided to ask everyone to come out to the streets of downtown to serve the homeless again in a special way. So the Streets of Hope volunteers came together to feed the homeless, massage the homeless, do hair cuts for the homelss and more!.

Hair Cutting for the Homeless

Last Thanksgiving and Christmas, Tammy cut hair for the homeless (on Thanksgiving she cut over 25 homeless people’s hair by herself, read more about it here!). So this time Tammy had several other professional hair cutters come out and help get the job done. This time they did over 40 hair cuts for the homeless!

Professional Massages for San Diego’s Homeless Men and Women

Once again for a Streets of Hope homeless outreach, we had our professional masseuse David, set up his table and give free 10 minute massages to the homeless. David’s wife Cindy wrote the homeless names down on the list and David began to go to work. He’s amazing. Each homeless person he massaged he put his full effort into it.

Feeding the San Diego’s Homeless

Once again Christina made food for 100+ people! She slaved in her kitchen for hours and hours making a traditional ham dinner with all the fixings! And once again, somehow, the food she made for about a hundred ended up feeding over 140 people! That’s amazing. Thank you God! And thank you Christina, and Isaiah, her incredible son, for working so hard for so many of San Diego’s homeless.

Clothing for San Diego’s Homeless

We had so many clothing donations. Thanks Conrad’s for bringing all the clothers we had stored up over the weeks for this event. Thanks Jenn, Curtis, Conrad and the rest of the donation team for making it so great.

Jeremy, our homeless chiropractor.
This is the first time we’ve had the chance to have a chiropractor. There were some amazing stories about how Jeremy was able to use his talents to bring not just smiles, but some real healing.
