This is about Vince. You may know him already.
Possibly you signed up to follow his Substack called I Am Vince.
Or maybe you donated to a previous campaign we ran to help him meet emergency needs as he battled homelessness.
Perhaps you tuned in a decade ago when his inspiring writings won international acclaim from the International Network of Street Papers.
Speak Up brings people together in writing groups that cross social, cultural, and economic divides. For a decade we published a magazine written by people facing homelessness.
Right now I’m posting because Vince is really struggling.
He’s facing homelessness, illness, and desperately in need of basics for life. He’s going to send me an update that I will share with you shortly. But for now — can you make a donation toward his needs right now? It’ll get him a phone, decent food, and a bus ticket to better resources.
Anything helps! Even 39 cents.
Thank you,
Matt Shaw
Executive Director
