Help Us Build Solar Tiny House for Homeless Mom and 4-yo Girl

A homeless mom who is always volunteering her time to help others is about to move out of a public shelter and into the first solar-powered tiny home born of a plan to launch a pay-it-forward housing movement.

Especially around the holidays we have the chance to make a difference in people’s lives.

Last year Good News Network held a Christmas fundraiser for a family that was about to get evicted, after falling behind on rent. Peter Campillo, his wife, mother and son, were overwhelmed by the warmth, generosity and positive messages from our community. On Christmas Eve, we got his bills paid, allowing hope to be revived in Peter’s heart.

He wrote to thank the concerned strangers who contributed from as far away as Australia, saying, “The last thing I need to complete the scenario is a good job, and I believe it will come – just got to keep the faith and not let bad things beat me down again.” Happily, the former medical billing worker wrote to me in June saying he finally, after more than a year of trying, got a job – one that was in his specialty field.
