The Working Homeless
Lady V must be, conservatively ,over 70 years old, if she’s a day. She is a member of a rising group called the working homeless, with a culture and a look all it’s own. She and 1 other that I know of
, work with me as fund raisers. What a twist- these determined women who travel with rolling suitcases in tow, sporting plaid jackets and dark pants, short hair and baseball caps or hoodies, who don’t have a permanent place to lay their heads at night, spend their days raising money for charities! I once saw Lady V retrieve an uneaten sandwich from the garbage and gratefully gobble it down. Then she took her seat in the call room and raised over $1000 for an equally grateful non profit organization. The irony. She sleeps in flop houses or cheap hotels when she has the money, and bus stations and I don’t know where, when she doesn’t. If only I had a small suite of offices which included a full kitchen and a full bathroom- I’d open up
