1. Wonderful! She's built these in Moscow & Berlin, and hopes to do NY next.
Wish we could get our elected leaders here to build ANY kind of homeless shelter - San Diego's East County has many homeless people but no shelter, thanks to the rethugs in charge.

3. "Each man living at the home has selected an artwork by Kilali to hang on his bedroom wall."
What a way to remind them of their own inner being.
Some people have a wonderful imagination.

4. "Give respect and dignity back" Does this not sound like true Christianity - True altruism!
Blessings to those who live there and to those who made the way there.

Here is to the "least of these".

One of the homeless with his treasures:
