See What Happens When We Feed the Homeless in NYC!

- Опубліковано 17 бер 2022
- Feed The Streets NYC is an all-volunteer mutual aid organization helping homeless people every Sunday in Lower Manhattan. As homelessness continues to grow, concerned citizens are stepping up to fill gaps in the safety net.
Amy is full of energy and a spirit of compassion. Amy works as a fashion model. She can do countless other things on the weekend, but Amy and a small army of volunteers gather donations to give out to their unhoused friends every Sunday in New York City
Feed The Streets started in Los Angeles but is expanding as resources allow. If you'd like more information to get involved or to make a donation, visit their website here: www.feedthestreets.info

About Invisible People
There is a direct correlation between what the general public perceives about homelessness and how it affects policy change. Most people blame homelessness on the person experiencing it instead of the increasing shortage of affordable housing, lack of employment, childhood trauma, lack of a living wage, or the countless reasons that put a person at risk. This lack of understanding creates a dangerous cycle of misperception that leads to the inability to effectively address the root causes of homelessness.
We imagine a world where everyone has a place to call home. Each day, we work to fight homelessness by giving it a face while educating individuals about the systemic issues that contribute to its existence. Through storytelling, education, news, and activism, we are changing the narrative on homelessness.
This isn’t just talk. Each year, our groundbreaking educational content reaches more than a billion people across the globe. Our real and unfiltered stories of homelessness shatter stereotypes, demand attention and deliver a call-to-action that is being answered by governments, major brands, nonprofit organizations, and everyday citizens just like you.
However, there is more work to be done on the road ahead. Homelessness is undoubtedly one of our biggest societal issues today and will only continue to grow if we don’t take action now.
Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to educating the public about homelessness through innovative storytelling, news, and advocacy. Since our launch in 2008, Invisible People has become a pioneer and trusted resource for inspiring action and raising awareness in support of advocacy, policy change and thoughtful dialogue around poverty in North America and the United Kingdom.
"If I don't eat I don't give it to them" this guy is golden
That's Miguel from delancey compassion
while places who sell food doesnt share this opinion.
Yes. Americans must help fellow Americans who are homeless to be rehomed and stable.
The world needs more of these kind people to spread love and humanity.
Nothing better than soup on a cold day. Thank you Feed The Streets NYC for helping people in need.
It’s really good soup too
It's delancey compassion who does the soup not feed the streets
@@InvisiblePeople can someone please email me I have been homeless since 2020 but the problem I am having is I worked at evil businesses in Houston Texas where I grew up. I need help I would move to NYC I have a desire disability called Autism and was discriminated and put down a lot at work. I have an email right now I don't have any income or food stamps I am trying to work I would also volunteer for Invisible People. United Way has never helped me I told them I was given away at birth and don't know my birth family
@@InvisiblePeople I currently live in Detroit/Ann Arbor I have been going back and forth. I was housed when I was in San Francisco last year. It was last Summer but I didn't have a valid ID to live there
Amy is a sweetheart! God bless you! Please give to Feed The Streets people!
100%
Thank you for all you are doing. Thank you to the homeless for staying strong.
brothers and sisters we must believe in Jesus Christ and repent of our sins because he is the way the truth and the life, God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son to, however believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life Jesus Christ loves you so much he wants you to be saved and succeed by following god's laws (Join Us Christians today) 🙏✝️❤🙏✝️❤🙏
I had a knee surgery to It's painful. I can only imagine what being released from the hospital and having to walk around all day on it is like. I had physical therapy for two years after. I feel for him. 🤗
Thank you for sharing. As a volunteer in the Feed the Streets LA group, I really appreciate you spotlighting the organization overall, but helping them further get the word out and help more people.
Thanks for the kind words
I've been homeless and I appreciate the help that people geve me as far as spare change and food and sox and stuff like that but people need more permanent solutions.
I still remember the shelter staff. You never forget the people that helped you out.
America Needs to take care of its own people, lots of love for these people...... Helping out.
Thank you for shining a light on these people.
Thank you. This Outreach in NYC was AMAZING Sunday .It was an honor volunteering with Amy and the FTS team.
Those who are willing to give are blessed and amazing.
Thanks Amy for makin these people happy & smile. "Even if it seems like huge but the smallest things you can do, can help 'em. May God bless you all. Salute!
There is human kindness....still.
Thank you..God bless you all. Positivity, love and care is what we all need these days.
I can only imagine the comfort of meeting and being given some kind words and some food and clean clothes off a person like Amy,the volunteer might not be able to sort put all the issues and find housing or treatment for other ailments but just the warmth and kindness can keep someone alive and hopeful that they will be off the streets one day.
Great work
I volunteered in NY I recommend anyone try it it's the best feeling to help. What was interesting that some who came for food where ones you never would have thought were homeless if you saw walking on the street. It shows you that there are many more out there on the verge of being on streets and may not be willing to accept help.
NYC has tons of buildings. They have zero excuse for anyone there to be homeless.
God bless that woman and those people in need. ♥️
What a inspiring beautiful women with a beautiful soul to match, rare indeed.💜🙏🦄
Very inspiring. I'm looking in my own area for ways I might be able to help.
Thank you for sharing
LIFE'S WALK
WHEN YOU WALK IN SOMEONE'S SHOES
YOU HAVE TO FEEL THEIR PAIN
YOU HAVE TO FEEL THEIR HAPPINESS
AND LOVE GONE DOWN THE DRAIN
IF YOU WALK IN SOMEONE'S SHOES
TAKE TIME TO UNDERSTAND
HOW THEY TROD THE PATH OF LIFE
WHEN NO ONE HELD THEIR HAND
WHEN YOU WALK IN SOMEONE'S SHOES
BE KIND AND SAY A PRAYER
FOR ONE DAY YOU MIGHT THAT WALK
WITH HOPE SOMEONE WILL CARE
UNTIL YOU WALK IN SOMEONE'S SHOES
YOU CANNOT MAKE THE CALL
YOU CANNOT JUDGE THEIR ACTIONS
OR IF THEY FAILED AT ALL
WE TROD THE PATH BESIDE YOU
AND TRIED TO UNDERSTAND
NOT IN YOUR SHOES BUT NEXT TO YOU
WITH LOVE WE HELD YOUR HAND
FEEL FREE TO SHARE IF IT CAN HELP SOMEONE
Incredible lady you are heaven sent.
she is GORGEOUS.
Thank you Amy ❤.
This is amazing. I would love to be part of something like this. I live very close to Big Bear Lake in California.
May God guide me to this level of humanity and bless these angels 🙏

@Alek Stanton what? Dang, I wish one million subs = one million dollars. You do know UA-cam pays by ads, NOT subscribers, yes? On all of our interview videos, there are zero ads. I did place ads in this video. It cost over $5,000 to make this video, and the total ad revenue will probably end up less than $200. Why would I lose money? 1) our goal in producing videos like this is to inspire others to help their homeless neighbors. 2) Amy is so nice and genuine, I wanted to invest in Feed The Streets NYC. AND AS FAR AS ENDING HOMELESSNESS BEING A THREAT TO OUR UA-cam CHANNEL OR NONPROFIT! In a heartbeat, I would go back to work in marketing, make good money, have less anxiety and depression that comes from working with hurting people, and I would get myself a new wife and vacation in Hawaii like normal people. Instead, I spend every waking moment working to help homeless people and solve the homeless crisis. For the past 13 years, I worked without compensation. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help solve homelessness so I can go back and have a normal life again. PLEASE?
@@InvisiblePeople ignore him Mark. This guy is just a waste of space troll. Nothing better to say.
@@alekstanton4715 If you do know UA-cam pays by ads, you left an "interesting" first comment. Other UA-camrs may sell classes or products or have other ways of generating revenue because...wait for it...they are in the business of making money. WE ARE NOT UA-camRS! Invisible People is a nonprofit organization working to help solve homelessness through storytelling, journalism, and advocacy. This leads me to the answer to your second question - we do not place ads on interview videos because we feel it would not be right to monetize a homeless person's story unless we could profit share with them. Again - we are a nonprofit, not a UA-camr.
Why does it cost $5,000 to make a video like this? I get the feeling you are just baiting me here, but I'll play. We paid someone to shoot, edit and produce this video. We also had to cover the costs of travel. $5,000 for a video is midrange. Many UA-camrs spend tens of thousands of dollars producing videos - bet that doesn't bother you, does it? Quality transmits creditability. Our goal is to reach people to motivate them to help their homeless neighbors. To do that, we need to produce quality videos. Plus, we wanted to provide Feed The Streets NYC a quality video they can use to gain more support.
As far as housing homelessness, watch this video about housing homeless people ua-cam.com/video/SizHuR225Co/v-deo.html
Your Bernie Sanders supporters comment is ignorant. Either you are some young kid getting filled with garbage from your parents or you're pretending to be a young kid but are really much older getting filled with garbage from Fox News. Ethier way, my guess is you're posting comments just to cause drama, so I knew responding to you would be a waste of my time, but I figured I would type this out for others that maybe be reading comments.
@@tahiridris3813 (((HUGS)))
@@alekstanton4715 your way of solving problems is not scalable, and a bit naive. Meaningful changes happen when the mindset of the general population has changed, especially in a democracy where we elect our representatives. Individual acts matter of course, but the real stuff with lasting effects happens at the systemic level.
If you are 19 you are still a young kid, btw! Your opinions will change a lot in the next 5 to 10 years.
You should watch the other vids from Invisible People btw. Their goal is to raise awareness about homelessness.
Great woman!
I agree
Love that makes the world go round, God Bless You All! Also, Happy belated Birthday Sir, May the angels of the Lord encamp around about you wherever thou goest, such a Precious Soul!😇💛😇
Thank you 🙏
Thank you for making a difference in these people's lives. Very inspiring and heartwarming.
Amazing 👏
There are good people doing what they can to help....but out government can and should but don't help more than they do!
Hello Angie 👋
Compliment’s of the season ✨.. My name is Rick I’m from Wilmington, North Carolina.. hope i haven’t been rude in anyway?
I miss you Riah!!!
Lord bless her.buss
Good story.
Thanks
Some people are homeless because of fathers like mine with drug issues that think its their way or the highway meanwhile we pay bills and do alot more then they ever did which could put us down a dark path
Pray for farmers
If anyone reading this is in the Bay Area (CA) please respond and let’s see if we can walk Amy’s talk in some small way! Maybe offer labor to Loaves and Fishes (who distributes hygiene kits as one thing)….
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Srt is a great place to be
😊😊😊❤❤❤
Of course that man loves jesus❤
God bless you Amy! You are incredible! If your not a Christian, come to Christ he, ll open up new path,s and opportunities for you as well as the homeless!!😊😊
Will your family find out if your in a homeless shelter in NYC? Do the shelters or housing people contact your family and relatives?
Ay i been thinking of starting a youtube channel where once a week or maybe biweekly i’d go out and try to help someone who’s homeless or at least make them smile and have a conversation with them, i live in winnipeg. Just wondering if u have any advice? Much love ❤️
Just love what u do and don't do it so u can look good in front of others do it for the love of humanity and the Lord
how about tents and sleeping bags?
Where are the locations?
How do we get started in our community?
Hello Linda 👋
Compliment’s of the season ✨.. My name is Rick I’m from Wilmington, North Carolina.. hope i haven’t been rude in anyway?
Amy, I got lots of stuff for the HOMELESS if anyone can come get it.
Wow i want to be homeless in the us 😂
No you don't (unless you are homeless in another country?)
I went to the website for FTS and when I tried to find address for NYC location, nothing came up .Do you know the address?
Reach out to Amy via their Instagram account, which is listed in the description. That’s how I normally make contact.
Thank you .I found the NYC location and am volunteering next Sunday
Commendable. I noticed they take care of guys, what about the gals?
Do you need to have a Business license to give homeless people food and stuff because I've heard that you need one in some states idk if its true or not
Диего крут . Харизма
Proverbs 3:9-10 Honor the LORD with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce, and your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your milking jars will overflow with their wine.
This channel should change its name from "invisible people" to "this can happen to you as well".
So sad Mayor's or congress men don't fund outlets like this,and they could but they don't, but the want to stop homelessness, and help the kids in their speeches but don't do anything! They should tax all sports teams 1or 2% of ticket money goes directly to programs like this and they will be able to provide for the less fortunate, when you out on the streets you be hungry every day not just Thanksgiving and Christmas.
For everybody who needs help ;
Turn your way to God for help.
He will help you if you are honest to Him.
Pray God for forgiveniss of your sins through the powerful work of His Son Jesus Christ. Amen 🙏
Read the Holy Bible for answers and consolatian, the New Testament in it for the Gospel.
Stop addiction now if you have one, stop prostitution now if you do, stop criminal activities now if you are doing them.
Pray and work normal for money if you can, go to church.
40 billion 💵 for Ukraine ppl and not one dime for USA ppl
Create Federal Skyscraper Housing. The shelters are prisons and then they arrest the homeless . Thats fine. Arrest the homeless. And more of the population will become homeless arrest the population too and the prisons systems overflow and have to build more prison systems. SEE BUILDING ANYWAY. So Build Federal skycraper Housing
Did u know that God will end world hunger as he says in the Bible book of Psalm 72:16...
And that isnt all that God will do for them and us...
He will also end homelessness forever!! As God was saying in the Bible book of Isaiah 65:21-23....
But that isnt all. God will also allow us to live forever as he says in the Bible book of Psalm 37;29...😊
virtue signaling
IMO by doing this, you are perpetuating homelessness. Just like feeding stray animals, doesn't help solve the core issue. Wouldn't it be better if 90% of your efforts go into set coordination channels with local authorities & Universities to create & implement plans that tend to erradic the problem at it's root. I wonder, people like you keep growing and so are the homeless.
