    • We've started a Flickr photostream. Submit your photo with a caption that tells a visual story of homelessness in Eugene, Oregon. If it's appropriate and we like it, we'll publish it!
  • “I know it is easier to fling free meals in the faces of idlers, but much more difficult to organize an institution where honest work has to be done…

    In the initial stages…the cost of feeding people after taking work from them will be more than the cost of the present free kitchens. But…it will be cheaper in the long run, if we do not want to increase the race of loafers which is fast overrunning this land. I cannot picture to myself a time when no man shall be richer than another. But I do picture to myself a time when the rich will spurn to enrich themselves at the expense of the poor and the poor will cease to envy the rich. Even in a most perfect world we shall fail to avoid inequalities but we can and must avoid strife and bitterness."

    Mahatma Gandhi
    --------------

    “If the world is to be healed through human efforts, I am convinced it will be by ordinary people, people whose love for this life is even greater than their fear. ”

    Joanna Macy, author and activist

  • Basic Human Needs

    "Wouldn't it be neat / If the people you meet / Had shoes upon their feet / And something to eat? / And wouldn't it be fine, / if all human kind had shelter? - - Basic human needs / Basic human deeds / Doing what comes naturally / Down in the garden / Where no one is apart / Deep down in the garden / The garden of your heart. - - And wouldn't it be daring / If folks started sharing / Instead of comparing / What each other was wearing?" - Wavy Gravy
  • Everyone needs to see “I AM” the documentary. “We are all connected… we are born to be our brother’s keeper….”

  • Revitalizing the homeless of downtown, The Oregon Vagabond newspaper is written and sold by homeless people in Eugene, Oregon. Our vision is reducing homelessness and keeping the streets a safe place to be. The street paper provides jobs, builds people's self-esteem, helps them to transition off the streets and back into society. We are a member of both the International Network of Street Papers (INSP) and the North American Street Newspaper Association (NASNA).
  • According to The National Alliance to End Homelessness, there are 643,067 people experiencing homelessness on any given night in the United States. Of that number, 238,110 are people in families, and 404,957 are individuals. 17 percent of the homeless population is considered "chronically homeless," and 12 percent of the homeless population - 67,000 - are veterans. The total number of homeless people in Oregon is 17,309.
