March 22 2020 - MANHATTAN, New York:
The Guardian Angels distributed care packages to the vulnerable homeless population who take residence in Penn Station, if they agreed to wash their hands on the spot.
The packages contained food, snacks, water and wipes, and they would receive them if they allowed the Guardian Angels to wash their hands with an alcohol solution and water.
They spoke to those they helped, asked about their stories, where they grew up and how they got here. They want people to know that the homeless people are still people despite their situation and regardless of how they ended up there.
The leader of the group, Curtis Sliwa, that city hasn't stepped up and BRC Homeless Outreach is simply closed.
