Thanks to the Augsburg student club, LINK, Homeless Awareness Week is being promoted here at Augsburg. Tonight LINK started the week off with a performance by ZAWAY (I may be getting the name wrong), a group of formerly homeless people who have been putting on productions around the Twin Cities area for four years. A representative from Minneapolis City Council was also here to speak about Henneppin's plan to dramatically decrease homelessness by a specific year (which I can't remember--but it's not too far off!) The City will be providing housing to the homeless without requiring them to first jump through unending holes. The city already has a lot of homes reserved for this mission.
Tonight helped to lessen and correct stereotypes while answering questions giving a great performance!
Thanks to LINK and a special congratulations to my buddy LeeAnne who puts more work into a lot of campus activities that more of us know!
