The Giving Spirit's mission is to serve the homeless population in Los Angeles one individual at a time by twice annually assembling and delivering “survival kits" containing basic necessities directly to as many homeless men, women and children as possible. The kits include food, drinks, hygiene products, weather protection, a blanket and other items that are useful and needed by individuals forced to live on the streets. Our purposes are multifaceted. Not only do the kits provide acute and immediate aid, they also provide an opportunity for recipients to forgo daily survival in seek of help, employment, or other support to get out of homelessness. They are suggestive about the need for the homeless to take care of themselves even in difficult circumstances. Most important, the direct giving by and contact with volunteers provides hope and a basis for action by both. We achieve this mission as a grass-roots, all-volunteer organization. By relying on volunteers, we are able to spend over 95% of the roughly $200,000+ of funds and 40,000+ of in-kind goods we raise from the public each year directly for the benefit of our homeless recipients. And we are able to provide over 2,000 volunteers each year an opportunity to serve homeless lives in Greater Los Angeles and to inform and educate them on the challenges that face our city's homeless.
