麻豆AV

Two fundraisers have been created over concern about 麻豆AV鈥檚 homelessness issue.

The pair of GoFundMe campaigns stem from Tuesday morning鈥檚 shocking news that the city would move people experiencing homelessness in Leon Avenue鈥檚 tent city to two locations in north 麻豆AV.

Despite coming out of the same problem, the fundraisers could not be more at odds.

On Wednesday (Nov. 27), against the city for 鈥渄amages to our community incurred as a result of inaction, incompetence and ineffectiveness in dealing with the sick, drug-addicted, intoxicated, violent, and often thieving homeless people on our streets.鈥�

Today (Nov. 28), a was organized, calling for civility and aid from residents of 麻豆AV.

鈥淚nstead of trying to raise money in order to file a class-action lawsuit against the city of 麻豆AV, we should be raising money to help the homeless get help,鈥� reads the campaign鈥檚 webpage.

鈥淲e have the power to help make a change and a difference in our community. Homelessness is everywhere, it is not a new trend and is a growing problem. Most people know that homeless shelters are around to help the homeless population, provide a warm place to sleep, but the condition of the shelters are an unknown problem.鈥�

The counter-campaign鈥檚 page states funds raised will help to house those experiencing homelessness for the winter.

As of 5 p.m. on Nov. 28, the campaign to sue the city has raised $240, while the campaign to provide aid to the people living in the camps has recieved $130.
