Help Us Provide Arthur With Food And The Ticket Home He Desperately Needs

After Years of Survival, One Act of Kindness Finally Broke Through

I stood there in fifteen degree weather, digging through trash for enough change to eat. I came all the way from Louisiana, and somehow ended up stranded here alone in a city that felt as cold as the ground under my feet.

I've been hurt in ways I don't talk about. For twenty years, I kept it together. I had to. But when someone showed me kindness I didn't expect, something in me just... broke. I cried for the first time in two decades.

All I want is a meal that fills me up and shoes that don't hurt my feet. But what I really need is a way home a chance to feel safe again.

If you can help me get warm clothes and a ticket back to Louisiana, I won't have to spend another night out here in the cold. Thank you for seeing me.
