Panhandling For Cash


Many of us are fortunate enough to have never wondered...Where is my next meal coming from? The homeless in abilene face this question all the time. I wanted to find out what is it like to be a pan handler.I caught up with someone who is living the life...And took a walk in her shoes as well. My experience taught me to give, even if i don't know the motives of the people that are receiving.
Are they really hungry? Are they taking advantage of people's generosity?
It may be impossible to know, but i found that it's a risk a lot of people, are willing to take. What would you do?

A Heavy Dose of Perspective

I spent an hour doing something I never thought I would do. I experienced things that were new to me, and hopefully the challenges I faced will never happen to me again. I have a new outlook on those who face similar obstacles on a day to day basis.

On April 29th, be sure to watch KRBC at ten to see how my life changed forever.
