I have a friend that has been homeless, and really needs help-- He has no car, no money, and debt up the kazoo. We can't keep him with us (in Evergreen, CO) much longer at our house at all. He was homeless for many months- and I have bucked my husband to have him come and temporarily live with us. He is a good guy, a hard worker, a Christian, and an honest person. He just got a job, but owes us and others many thousands of dollars, and has to walk miles to this new job- just started a few days ago. Is there any way you might be able to help him with a place to live, or a car? I would appreciate any help at all. Thanks.
