Friendship Place Video from the 5th Annual Friends & Neighbors Fundraising Breakfast.
About every two years we produce a new video for Friendship Place.This pro-bono video was prepared for the 3d Annual Friends & Neighbors Fundraising Breakfast by Hinkle & Nasuti. It features Andrew, Terry, Danny, and Eric--four Friendship Place consumers talking about living on the streets and transitioning to permanent housing. Eric passed away about six or seven months after the video was shown.
The Neighbors video is an entirely volunteer production, created by Diane Park for Friendship Place with assistance by Lee Carty and Abba Shapiro. It features George, David, Thelma, and Daniel. Four Friendship Place permanent residents and well as some volunteers, staff and board members sharing their thoughts about supporting services for homeless people.
