An Activity Like No Other


Hello, I am Jacob Folger, Founder of Friend to the Homeless. Here on this site, I take my own experiences as a formerly Homeless Person to help others to discover the joy of care package giving.


When I was Homeless, I would have been so grateful had someone been thoughtful enough to give me such a thing as a Care Package. I never did receive anything like one in all the 13 years I was Homeless.


Once I got on my feet, I began giving care packages to my Homeless Brothers and Sisters. It is a good and wonderful activity for all those involved. I am so lucky to have come upon this gift. The gift of giving care packages to Homeless People.
