‘Just Get a Job’ — A Deep Dive Into Why It’s Not That Simple
First of All, Let’s Talk Logistics
You want someone to get a job?
Do they have an ID?
Do they have access to a phone or email to even apply?
Do they have reliable transportation?
Do they have clean clothes to wear to an interview?
Do they have a mailing address to receive documents or paychecks?
Do they have a place to shower, sleep, eat, and rest between shifts?
The answer is usually no. Not because they’re “lazy.” Because poverty is loud. It screams at you from every angle. It eats up your energy. And before you even clock in, you’ve already fought a battle just to look like everyone else in the room.
Most jobs require the very things that people in survival mode don’t have. If you’ve never had to take a bus two hours to work for eight hours on your feet and then back again—only to sleep in your car or a shelter—then you might not get it. But that’s the daily grind for a lot of people.
But Wait—Let’s Talk About Health
Not everyone can work. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally. You don’t always see disability. You don’t always see trauma. But it’s there.
You don’t see the man with bipolar disorder who cycles through mania and depression so hard he can barely keep track of time. You don’t see the woman with chronic pain who smiles through it because she knows people will assume she’s fine. You don’t see the PTSD from a childhood of abuse, from war, from rape, from things we don’t talk about in polite company.
And let me ask you this: if you were battling cancer, grieving your child, or sleeping under a bridge for the third winter in a row… could you “just get a job”?
Then There’s the Hiring Process
Ever applied for 30 jobs and heard nothing back?
Now try doing that with a criminal record. Or a GED instead of a diploma. Or gaps in your resume because life knocked you out for a while.
Try doing that while Black. While trans. While disabled. While undocumented. While looking “rough.” While using a homeless shelter as your address.
Employers don’t just look at skills—they look at what makes them comfortable. And a lot of folks don’t fit the picture of what “professional” looks like. So they don’t get a call back.
And even if they do—are we ready to talk about what minimum wage actually buys you in this economy?
This Ain’t Just About Work—It’s About Worth
Saying “just get a job” assumes that a person’s worth is only measured by how much they can produce. That if they’re not grinding for 40+ hours a week, they’re disposable.
But people are more than productivity. More than paychecks. More than whether or not they can fit into a broken system.
Sometimes people need healing before they can hustle. Sometimes they need support before they can stand. Sometimes they need grace before they can grow.
We talk so much about “personal responsibility,” but rarely about community accountability. We expect the individual to carry the weight of a society that continues to raise rent, lower wages, cut services, and then shame people for drowning.
So What Should We Say?
Instead of “just get a job,” try asking:
What systems failed them?
What barriers are standing in the way?
How can we help remove those barriers?
How can I be part of the solution instead of pretending I’m above the problem?
Because if you were born into different circumstances—if life had turned left instead of right—you could be in that same position. You could be the person someone whispers about in disgust. But you’re not. And that should make you grateful, not judgmental.
Let’s Keep It Real
“Just get a job” isn’t just a phrase—it’s a wall. A way to shut down empathy. A way to pretend that struggle is always a choice. But it’s not.
People are trying. People are tired. People are navigating trauma, illness, poverty, and pain—and doing the best they can with what they’ve got.
The least we can do is stop throwing slogans at wounds and start showing up with solutions.
Let’s stop talking down.
Let’s start building up.
What We Can Learn From Countries That Have Solved Homelessness
In America, we talk about homelessness like it’s a force of nature—something inevitable, uncontrollable, a problem too big to solve. We throw billions at emergency shelters, punitive policies, and temporary fixes, all while homelessness continues to rise.
But what if we told you there are places where homelessness isn’t a crisis? Countries that have solved it—not by managing it, not by criminalizing it, but by designing systems that ensure housing is a right, not a privilege.
It’s time to stop asking if homelessness can be solved. It already has been. The real question is: why aren’t we learning from those who’ve done it?
Finland:
The Nation That Made Housing a Right
Finland is the only European country where homelessness is declining. And it’s not because of luck—it’s because of a radical commitment to Housing First.
Here’s how it works:
- They don’t wait for people to "fix their lives" before giving them housing. No job? Struggling with addiction? No problem. You get a home first, and then wraparound services help with employment, mental health, and substance recovery.
- They don’t do temporary band-aids. Finland replaced shelters with actual apartments. They didn’t just expand emergency housing; they restructured the entire system so that homelessness is rare and brief.
- They invest in people, not punishment. Instead of throwing money into law enforcement and emergency responses, Finland redirected funds into permanent housing and social services. The result? It actually costs them less in the long run.
And the data proves it: since adopting Housing First, homelessness in Finland has dropped by over 70%, and they are on track to reach functional zero.
Now imagine if the U.S. did the same. Imagine if we stopped treating housing as a reward for stability and started treating it as the foundation for stability.
Japan:
The Culture of Collective Responsibility
Japan has one of the lowest homelessness rates in the world. Not because of Housing First (though that would help), but because its entire system is designed to prevent homelessness from happening in the first place. How though?
- Guaranteed emergency assistance: If you lose your job, the government immediately steps in with housing and financial support. They don’t let people spiral into homelessness—they catch them before they fall.
- Cultural accountability: In Japan, there’s a strong sense of collective responsibility. Companies are expected to support struggling employees, families step in before the government needs to, and society as a whole doesn’t treat homelessness as an individual failure, but a failure of the system.
- Public spaces designed for dignity: Unlike in many Western countries where hostile architecture pushes the homeless out of sight, Japan’s urban design ensures that public spaces are accessible, clean, and humane.
What can we learn? Prevention is easier than crisis management. Instead of waiting for people to become homeless, we need systems that ensure they never get there in the first place.
Denmark:
The Power of Social Safety Nets
Denmark, like Finland, has embraced Housing First. But what makes Denmark stand out is its comprehensive safety net that ensures homelessness is rare, not routine.
- Universal healthcare: No one in Denmark is forced into homelessness because of medical debt. In the U.S., one unexpected hospital bill can send someone onto the streets.
- Strong worker protections: Denmark has a robust unemployment system that prevents job loss from turning into homelessness. They ensure people stay housed even in times of crisis.
- Public housing that works: Nearly 20% of Danish homes are public housing, and they aren’t run-down, stigmatized projects—they are high-quality, well-integrated, and available to anyone.
Denmark doesn’t just help the homeless. They structure society so that homelessness is rare in the first place.
What’s Stopping the U.S. From Doing the Same?
The U.S. is the richest country in the world, yet we have over 650,000 people experiencing homelessness every night—and that number is growing. Why?
We treat housing as a commodity, not a human right.
We criminalize homelessness instead of solving it.
We prioritize emergency responses over long-term solutions.
The solutions exist. We’ve seen them work. The only thing standing in the way is the political will to make housing a human right, not a privilege reserved for those who can afford it.
The Road Forward: Lessons We Must Apply
- Housing First Works. Finland proved it. The U.S. needs to stop requiring people to be "worthy" of housing before providing it.
- Prevention is Easier Than Crisis Response. Japan’s safety nets stop homelessness before it starts. The U.S. must invest in preventative housing programs, not just shelters.
- A Strong Social Safety Net Saves Lives. Denmark ensures housing, healthcare, and employment protections so people don’t spiral into homelessness. We need the same protections here.
- We Must Treat Homelessness as a Systemic Issue, Not an Individual Failing. No one chooses to be homeless. The system creates the conditions for it to happen. The system can also fix it.
The question is no longer HOW to end homelessness. The question is: Will we demand the policies that make it happen?
The answers are already out there. The success stories exist. It’s time to stop making excuses.
Homelessness isn’t inevitable. It’s a policy choice. And we can choose differently.
What do you think? Which of these lessons do you believe the U.S. should adopt first?
Drop your thoughts in the comments—we’re ready to have the conversation.
The Ripple Effect of Kindness: How One Good Deed sparks Generational Change
Drop a pebble into the water, and you’ll see it — ripples stretching outward, one circle after another, reaching far beyond the original splash.
At Innovoreach, we believe the same happens when we show up for people. One good deed. One opportunity extended. One person uplifted. That’s all it takes to spark a chain reaction that touches families, communities, and even future generations.
This is the ripple effect of kindness, and it’s how real, lasting change begins.
Why the Ripple Effect of Kindness Matters
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by how much needs fixing in the world. But, when we focus on what’s possible instead of what’s broken, everything shifts.
One shared meal.
One safe place to rest.
One encouraging conversation.
These aren’t just services — they’re investments in long-term solutions. When we meet people with dignity and care, we empower them to rewrite their own stories — and those stories ripple outward.
Helping One Person Can Impact Generations
Imagine this:
A parent finds stability, and their child grows up without the trauma of housing insecurity.
A young adult receives a second chance and becomes an advocate for others in similar situations.
A community member gives what they can and becomes the reason someone’s journey turns around.
This is how generational change through community support begins.
You don’t have to do everything to make a difference. You just have to do something.
How You Can Start the Ripple
You are part of the solution. Every donation, every volunteer hour, every kind gesture adds a drop to the water.
The most powerful part? You don’t have to wait for impact — you can create it now.

The Plan to Dismantle Social Safety Nets is Already in Motion — Here’s How We Fight Back
If You’re Not Angry Yet, You’re Not Paying Attention
The people in power have a plan. It’s not a secret. It’s not a conspiracy theory. It’s not an accident.
They are systematically gutting the programs that keep people alive.
SNAP benefits slashed.
Medicaid expansions rolled back.
Affordable housing programs underfunded into oblivion.
Unemployment assistance made intentionally impossible to access.
And every time they strip away another layer of support, they tell us the same lazy, insulting lie:
“We just can’t afford it.”
Meanwhile:
There’s always money for corporate tax breaks.
There’s always money for the military industrial complex.
There’s always money to bail out billionaires and banks.
But when it comes to feeding people, housing people, giving people access to healthcare? Suddenly, we’re broke.
It’s not about money. It’s about control.
The Endgame: Keep People Desperate
The attacks on social safety nets aren’t about “reducing government spending.” They are about manufacturing desperation.
Because when people are desperate, they are:
✔ Easier to exploit.
✔ Easier to control.
✔ Easier to blame.
When wages are low, jobs are unstable, rent is obscene, and the government cuts every last lifeline—people will accept anything.
They’ll take horrific jobs with no benefits. They’ll stay silent while being mistreated. They won’t organize, they won’t fight back—because they’re too busy trying to survive.
That is the goal.
That is why they don’t want universal healthcare.
That is why they don’t want housing protections.
That is why they don’t want living wages.
Because if people had even the bare minimum of security, they wouldn’t have to accept this broken, exploitative system.
They Want You to Blame the Wrong People
And here’s where the scam gets even worse: They want us fighting each other instead of fighting them.
They tell you that SNAP benefits are being cut because of “lazy freeloaders”—not because corporations don’t pay taxes.
They tell you that affordable housing is impossible because “people don’t want to work”—not because hedge funds are buying up entire neighborhoods and jacking up rent.
They tell you that Medicaid is “too expensive”—not that defense contractors make trillions off endless wars.
They create artificial scarcity, turn people against each other, and distract us while they rob the public blind.
Here’s How We Fight Back
Step one: Stop falling for their bullshit.
Social safety nets don’t “hurt the economy.” They keep people alive.
Government assistance isn’t “stealing from taxpayers.” It’s our money—and we have every right to demand it be spent on the people, not the powerful.
Action Steps:
1. Call it what it is: Theft. When billionaires dodge taxes while social programs get cut, that’s not “good business.” That’s robbery.
2. Demand the money go where it belongs. If they can afford corporate subsidies, they can afford universal healthcare, housing, and food security.
3. Expose their hypocrisy. Every politician slashing benefits while taking lobbyist money from billionaires needs to be put on blast.
4. Organize. Protests, strikes, mass movements—the only time in history the powerful have given up anything is when the people made it too costly not to.
5. Vote, but also apply pressure. The system won’t fix itself. Make politicians fear the people more than they fear their corporate donors.
We are not running out of money. We are running out of patience.
The people in charge aren’t going to stop dismantling social safety nets until we make them stop.
So, what’s it going to be? Let them take everything? Or fight like hell to take it back?
What If Cities Were Designed With the Homeless in Mind?
Imagine walking through a city where no one sleeps on the cold pavement, no one digs through trash for a meal, and no one is invisible. A city where dignity isn't a privilege, but the foundation of its design. What if we built our cities—not as fortresses of wealth, but as ecosystems of care? What if, instead of treating homelessness as a problem to be managed, we designed our communities so that no one would fall through the cracks in the first place?
This isn't utopian thinking. It's a radical reimagining of what’s possible when we prioritize people over profit, dignity over convenience, and community over exclusion.
Rethinking the Blueprint
For too long, cities have been designed with one goal in mind: economic efficiency. Skyscrapers reach for the sky, luxury condos multiply, and public spaces are engineered for consumption rather than connection. Meanwhile, benches become hostile with dividers to prevent sleeping, underpasses are filled with jagged rocks to deter encampments, and public restrooms are locked to those who need them most.
This is intentional design—but it's design rooted in exclusion.
Now, let’s flip the script. What if we built cities where homelessness was not only addressed but prevented through infrastructure, policy, and innovation? What would that look like?
Homes Before Skyscrape-rs
Every city has vacant buildings. Every city has underutilized land. What if zoning laws required that a portion of all new developments included deeply affordable housing? What if tax incentives rewarded landlords for offering long-term, low-income leases instead of short-term, high-profit rentals? What if cities committed to housing first—not as a last resort, but as the very foundation of urban planning?
Imagine micro-neighborhoods with tiny home clusters, co-living spaces, and low-barrier shelters integrated into every district, not pushed to the fringes. Housing isn’t a privilege—it’s the most basic form of stability a human being can have.
A CITY THAT MOVES EVERYONE
Public transportation should not be a luxury—it should be a guarantee. Many homeless individuals face barriers to employment, healthcare, and stability simply because they cannot get where they need to go.
Now imagine free, 24/7 public transit with priority access for job seekers, people in transitional housing, and those in need of medical care. Picture bus stops designed with shade, water stations, and charging ports—not hostile architecture meant to discourage people from resting.
Mobility is opportunity. A city that moves its people moves toward solutions.
RESTROOMS, SHOWERS, & HUMAN DIGNITY
Every human being needs access to hygiene. Yet most cities provide fewer public restrooms than ever before, forcing people to rely on businesses, shelters, or nothing at all.
What if every city had 24-hour public restrooms with showers and lockers, maintained as a public service, not as an afterthought? What if we normalized hygiene hubs—places where people could clean up, do laundry, and reset—because we recognize that dignity is non-negotiable?
We build fountains to beautify cities; why not build water stations to sustain lives?
A RADICAL REDESIGN OF PUBLIC SPACES
Cities are filled with parks, plazas, and sidewalks—spaces meant to be shared. But what if they weren’t just designed for the leisurely few?
Picture public spaces equipped with solar-powered phone charging stations, community kitchens where anyone can access food, and resource kiosks that connect people to housing, mental health services, and employment.
Envision libraries that double as 24-hour community hubs, offering not just books but co-working spaces, resume workshops, and support networks. Imagine city centers where no one is ignored, where help isn’t hidden behind bureaucracy but embedded into the fabric of everyday life.
This isn’t charity—it’s smart, compassionate design.
JOBS WITH PURPOSE, NOT
PUNISH-MENT
Employment is often the missing key to stability, yet many cities penalize the homeless instead of empowering them. Imagine if, instead of criminalizing poverty, we created public works programs that hired people to care for their own communities?
Cities could invest in paid workforce development programs where individuals experiencing homelessness are trained in urban farming, maintenance, recycling initiatives, and city beautification. These jobs would provide income, routine, and a stepping stone to independence.
A city should not just shelter people—it should employ them, empower them, and treat them as citizens with potential, not statistics to be managed.
The Future is Ours to Build
Homelessness is not inevitable. It is not an unsolvable crisis. It is a policy choice. It is a design choice. It is a reflection of what we, as a society, prioritize.
If we can design cities that cater to tourists, billionaires, and tech giants, we can design cities that prioritize basic human needs.
The question is not can we? The question is will we?
The cities of tomorrow are being designed today. Let’s make sure we build them for everyone.
What do you think? What would your ideal city look like? Drop your ideas in the comments and let’s push the boundaries together.
Introducing AmpedUp: Powering the Future, One Connection at a Time
Imagine waking up every morning without a place to charge your phone. No way to call for help, check the weather, apply for a job, or connect with family. In a world where nearly everything —employment, safety, healthcare, and support — depends on digital access, what happens when you’re locked out of the system simply because your battery is dead?
At Innovoreach, we don’t believe in band-aid solutions. We believe in breaking cycles. And to do that, we must ensure that people have the tools to take their next step forward.
That’s why we created AmpedUp — a bold initiative designed to power more than just devices. It powers possibilities. It ensures that homeless and underserved individuals are never left disconnected from the opportunities that can change their lives.
The Digital Divide No One Talks About
The conversation around homelessness is often focused on food and shelter—but there’s another need just as critical in the modern world: power and connectivity.
35% of homeless individuals lack consistent access to charged devices.
1 in 3 homeless people have missed a job opportunity because their phone was dead.
Public spaces may offer outlets, but they don’t provide chargers—rendering them useless to those without the means to power up.
Emergency situations demand instant access to help, yet many are left vulnerable simply because they can’t make a call.
We can’t expect people to lift themselves out of difficult circumstances while keeping them disconnected from the world they need to reach. A charged phone is more than a convenience—it’s a bridge to safety, stability, and self-sufficiency.
The Vision: What AmpedUp Will Build
We see a future where no one is stranded simply because their device is dead. Where shelters, libraries, transit hubs, and community centers are equipped with secure, reliable charging stations that provide the simplest but most essential resource: power.
AmpedUp isn’t just about charging phones—it’s about charging forward.
We are creating an infrastructure that ensures digital access is not a privilege but a human right. Every charging station placed is a step toward equity, a commitment to breaking barriers, and a direct investment in the potential of every individual who needs that charge to move forward.
Imagine a young woman who’s been searching for a job, but her phone dies before she can receive a callback. AmpedUp changes that. Imagine a man who needs to check in with his caseworker but has no place to charge his device. AmpedUp changes that. Imagine a teenager experiencing homelessness, trying to stay in touch with a mentor but struggling to find power. AmpedUp changes that.
How You Can Be Part of the Solution
We’re not asking for charity—we’re asking for visionaries who see the big picture and want to be part of building it.
Businesses & Organizations: Sponsor a charging station in your community and make an immediate impact.
Tech & Infrastructure Partners: Let’s collaborate to expand access and innovate digital equity.
Community Members: Help us fund more stations, so no one is left without a lifeline.
The Future We’re Building—Together
We are redefining what it means to support the homeless community. Not by simply providing temporary relief, but by building systems that ensure people aren’t left behind in the first place. AmpedUp is not just a program—it’s a movement toward digital justice, empowerment, and equity.
This is where we start. This is how we change lives. And this is how we charge forward, together.

If We Can Fund Billionaires, We Can Fund Housing
Let’s Cut the Bullshit.
We live in a world where billionaires get tax breaks, corporations get bailouts, and the ultra-rich hoard wealth at a scale so obscene it could single-handedly solve homelessness a hundred times over. And yet—somehow—we’re still debating whether we can afford to house human beings.
Every year, cities and governments funnel billions into incentives for developers, subsidies for corporations, and tax loopholes that ensure the wealthiest never have to pay their fair share. Meanwhile, those at the bottom are left to scrape by in a system designed to grind them into the pavement.
The money exists. The resources exist. The only thing missing? The political will to stop treating homelessness as an inevitability instead of what it is—a policy choice.
We Are Funding the Wrong People
If a billionaire loses money, we call it a crisis. If a corporation struggles, we call it a national emergency. But if a person loses their home, their job, or their stability? We call it their fault.
Jeff Bezos was handed a $600 million contract from the U.S. government for cloud computing.
Elon Musk’s SpaceX got $5 billion in federal contracts before its rockets could even launch properly.
The banking industry gets trillions in bailouts when their own reckless greed causes financial collapse.
And what do we get?
"Sorry, there's no budget for public housing."
"Sorry, shelters are full."
"Sorry, mental health services are underfunded."
Bullshit. The money is there—we just refuse to spend it on people who need it the most.
Housing Shouldn’t Be a Privilege
Let’s be clear: Homelessness is not a personal failure. It is a systemic failure.
There are 16 million empty homes in America. That’s enough to house every single homeless person 20 times over.
The government already spends more on policing homelessness than it would cost to house people. (Because apparently, jailing the poor is a priority, but housing them isn’t.)
The cost of homelessness to taxpayers is astronomical—emergency room visits, incarceration, and social services all add up to far more than simply providing permanent housing.
We could end homelessness tomorrow. Not in a decade. Not in five years. Tomorrow.
How? By shifting money from the pockets of billionaires and into Housing First policies—proven, data-backed solutions that permanently house people and support them in rebuilding their lives.
But instead of doing what works, we waste money on sweeps, tent bans, and criminalizing poverty—because the goal has never been to fix homelessness. The goal has been to make it invisible.
A System Designed to Keep You Desperate
Homelessness isn’t just about a lack of housing—it’s about control.
When housing is unaffordable, when wages are stagnant, when social services are gutted, the message is clear: Stay in line. Accept your crumbs. Be grateful you’re not on the street.
It’s fear-based governance. A society where people are so afraid of losing what little they have that they won’t dare question those who have too much.
And that’s exactly why homelessness persists.
It is not an accident. It is a manufactured crisis that benefits landlords, developers, and the ultra-rich who thrive on scarcity. They keep housing expensive. They keep wages low. They keep assistance out of reach.
Because the more desperate people are, the more exploitable they become.
The Time for Excuses Is Over
If we can afford to send billionaires to space, we can afford to fund housing.
If we can afford endless wars, we can afford to fund housing.
If we can afford corporate bailouts, we can afford to fund housing.
The problem isn’t money. The problem is priorities.
So, what are you going to do about it?
Are you going to sit back and let another winter pass while human beings freeze on sidewalks?
Are you going to accept a world where billionaires collect handouts while families sleep in their cars?
Are you going to let another politician tell you we “can’t afford” to house people while they vote for yet another corporate tax cut?
Or are you going to raise hell until something changes?
Because make no mistake—change doesn’t come from silence. It comes from disruption. From pressure. From the absolute refusal to accept injustice as normal.
And if you’re not part of that fight, you’re part of the problem.
Now, which side are you on?
Why Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Are Non-Negotiable at Innovoreach
At Innovoreach, we believe that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are not just buzzwords—they are the foundation upon which we stand. The work we do is deeply rooted in the idea that everyone—regardless of background, circumstances, or societal barriers—deserves dignity, opportunity, and support.
We Will Not Compromise
“We serve the homeless. We serve the underserved. We serve those who have been cast aside, overlooked, and denied access to the basic necessities of life. And because of that, we refuse to cower. We will not dilute our mission for the sake of making others more comfortable,” said Innovoreach’s Founder and CEO, Destiny Battles.
The individuals we support have experienced exclusion at a level many cannot fathom—shut out of housing, healthcare, employment, and even basic human decency. We cannot, in good conscience, abandon them or make concessions that go against the very reason we exist.
Ms. Battles also said, “At Innovoreach, DEI is not up for debate. It is our moral obligation to stand between oppression and opportunity, to shield those who have been failed by the system, and to be the voice for those who have been silenced.”
Everyone Deserves a Piece of the Pie
Equity means recognizing the barriers that prevent people from thriving and actively working to remove them. It means that if someone starts with less, we fight to ensure they get what they need—not just to survive, but to succeed.
We reject the idea that fairness means treating everyone the same. True fairness means ensuring that those who have been denied access finally receive what they need to stand on solid ground.
This is why our programs don’t operate under a one-size-fits-all model. We assess, adapt, and respond to the unique needs of each individual, whether it’s securing stable housing, providing essential services, or ensuring access to mental health care.
we Represent the Forgotten, and We won’t Apologize for it
Some might suggest that advocating for the most vulnerable means taking a side. We are taking a side. We are standing on the side of justice.
Our clients are not statistics. They are human beings with dreams, struggles, and aspirations. They have been ignored for too long, and we will not participate in their erasure just to appease any group that prefers to look the other way.
We refuse to let fear dictate our principles.
We refuse to allow exclusion to continue unchecked.
We refuse to stand down when there is work to be done.
Innovoreach Will Be the Light in the Darkness
When the world turns a blind eye, we will still see.
When people choose silence over action, we will still speak.
When hope feels impossible, we will still provide it.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just initiatives at Innovoreach. They are the lifeblood of our mission. We exist because of them.
And we will never compromise.
Don’t Cower. Fight.
Stand Up. Speak Out. Show Up.
Because justice isn’t passive. Hope isn’t weak. And change doesn’t happen in silence.
At Innovoreach, we choose to fight for those who have been forgotten.
We choose to be the light.
