“My views on life have completely
been rerouted, I've realized how much I love volunteering, and have even
considered social work as a major. I met some of the funniest people in
the world, gotten along with all different types of people, had
something in common with 18 others, shared a brain for a hot second,
dealt with annoyance and frustration calmly, and made some really
awesome friends. It was definitely an experience to remember and I
highly recommend it for spring breakers next year.”
–Morgan Ryan

I feel sorry for those who deal with
being homeless every night. I also admire their strength in a way. I
know I would not be able to handle this type of situation night after
night. - Brianna Sanders
I feel sorry for the ones that have
to do this every night, especially families that include children. It's
too cold for anyone to be out here. Sleeping in a cold, wet,
uncomfortable box is enough to make me realize how thankful and blessed
I really am and that I take things for granted. I can't even imaging
being in a state up north.
