Give US your Poor is a National Public Education Campaign Addressing Homelessness. It Is Housed At The McCormack Graduate School Of Policy & Global Studies At The University Of Massachusetts Boston. In 1999, Give US Your Poor Began As A Documentary Film Project Looking At Homelessness, And Has Grown Into A Wider Education Campaign Utilizing Networks, Media, Public Support, And The Latest Research On Homelessness. From The Beginning, Give US Your Poor Has Existed Not To Compete With Other Homeless Organizations, But Rather To Complement And Work With Them.
The Voices for Veterans concert series connects homeless organizations, celebrity advocates, local musicians and people like you to end veteran homelessness. We are using music and art to dispel myths, show support, and foster action to end veteran homelessness once and for all. Regional concerts and events have included artists such as Ringo Starr, Steve Earle, Adam Ezra Group, Smokey Robinson & Mario Frangoulis. Most of our activity is focused on serving veterans in Massachusetts and Missouri.
Beyond public education (PSAs, conferences, events, documentary, CD, articles, etc.) Give US Your Poor is committed to classroom education. We have developed two full curricula for middle and high schools, an undergraduate college course on the history of homelessness, as well as individual lesson plans and exercises for high school and middle school classrooms.
