To Whom It May Concern,
I hope this truly finds you well. I am writing to you with a heavy heart and an urgent request on behalf of Drew, a man who has fallen through the cracks of a system that was meant to help. Drew is currently experiencing homelessness in Baltimore City, where he spends his days surviving in alleyways, sidewalks, and abandoned houses. Baltimore’s streets are incredibly dangerous, and Drew has been the victim of theft multiple times, having his belongings stolen as he tries to survive. His situation is dire, and I am reaching out in the hope that you may be able to offer support or direct him to resources that can make a real difference in his life.
Unlike many individuals experiencing homelessness, Drew does not struggle with substance abuse or mental health issues. However, he has been systematically turned away from numerous programs due to his circumstances not aligning with their intended purpose. This has left him in a seemingly hopeless position: he wants to rebuild his life but lacks the resources to do so.
Drew’s greatest challenge right now is not addiction or mental illness—it is the lack of basic support and resources that would allow him to regain his footing. He has no identification, no access to clean clothes or a safe place to sleep. Every day is a fight for survival, yet Drew’s spirit remains unbroken. He has a strong desire to improve his situation, with skills and a mindset that are centered around information technology, but without the proper resources, he cannot pursue these opportunities.
Drew is seeking the following simple yet crucial assistance:
- Identification: Without ID, Drew cannot apply for work, housing, or even open a bank account.
- Clothing and Personal Care: The ability to wear clean clothes and maintain personal hygiene is not only essential for survival but also for rebuilding his confidence and self-esteem.
- A Safe Place to Sleep: A safe space to rest, secure his belongings, and access basic facilities like a shower would provide the stability needed to pursue work and education.
- Financial Assistance: Drew’s skills and mindset in information technology could help him secure employment and build a future. Financial help would enable him to obtain the necessary resources to move forward in life.
Research studies in California have shown that the amount of financial assistance necessary to end homelessness for an individual is approximately $7,500. With this amount, Drew would be able to obtain identification, secure clothing and personal care items, find a safe place to stay, and have the stability needed to get back on his feet. This investment would allow Drew to escape the cycle of homelessness and start building a successful future for himself.
Unfortunately, Drew’s family is not actively involved in his life, and they are unable to offer any support. Therefore, he is relying on the kindness of others to help him get back on his feet.
Drew has been seen standing at stoplights, holding a sign that says, “Homeless need help, please.” He’s grateful for the people who have shown kindness and offered assistance. If you would like to contribute, Drew’s Cashtag is $Technicalcrash, where any financial contributions would go directly toward obtaining identification, clothing, a safe place to stay, and other essential needs.
I humbly ask that you consider helping Drew or point him toward any resources, shelters, or programs that could provide him the opportunity to rebuild his life. He has a strong desire to get back on his feet, but without support, this is an uphill battle he cannot win alone.
Thank you to all who have already offered assistance and to anyone who may be able to provide further support. Your generosity could make a profound difference in someone’s life who is desperately trying to make a change.
With sincere gratitude have a blessed day
