This app needs fixing

I can’t read their stories as it doesn’t let me click on read more. I scroll down and it scrolls way down to their goals not letting me click read more…

Please fix

If you wanna feel good but not solve the problem

This will not solve or answer the root cause of why people end up unhoused. It’s just a feel-good charity.

This is a big deal

I’ve heard one of the founders explain the mission of this app and how they’re going about it, and this is unlike any other homeless outreach program I’ve seen before. Identifying people by their stories is a big part of the solution to the homeless crisis. Very exciting.

Faster expansion?

Can you make this come to Massachusetts faster please. I know you’re expanding to 100 cities, but the 3 major cities in Massachusetts would be nice too please.
