Breakfast American homeless

In the US, according to official figures it is home to about 3, 5 million people, which simply have nowhere to sleep. These people do not have a permanent job and no money for pickup or purchase of property. Typically for such people, there are special shelters. Today I'll show you that in one of these shelters provide breakfast.




Breakfast there from 5:30 to 7:30, so had to get up very early. Most of the customers at the shelter are people with mental health problems and drug addiction. Therefore there are strict security measures, and at the entrance there is security and metaloiskatel. At night, the shelter is closed.



Smoking should not be in the shelter.



Slowly gather volunteers. There were about 15.



Pnachitelnaya of the products - donations from stores. This bread was sold yesterday, and shops give it to a shelter.



We were divided into several teams - in the distribution of food, cleaning and washing dishes and cooking dinner. Distribution line began with kukurunyh flakes. Several varieties of milk they have already poured in taste.



Then the eggs and bread.



Juice and sweet donuts.



At the end of the line breakfast it looked like this ... Kids were given a bag of milk separately.



Then the choice - coffee, tea, or soft drinks.



Meanwhile, another team in the kitchen preparing dinner (lunch) I understand dinner they had fruit, and macaroni and cheese.



Fruits (pineapples, peaches, pears, and melons) are laid out on the individual cups.





Here are the pasta will cook in this huge pot.





In the meantime, here are doing a mixture of several different melted cheeses.



That's how the final product looks. A total of 6 cooking containers.



The third team was collecting and washing dirty dishes











After graduation, we had all clean. Wash and scrub away boilers.







Then wash the tables, the floor and clean the chairs in the dining room.

Customers themselves were not allowed to take pictures of the orphanage. At the heart of these were native-born Americans (immigrants among them almost none), as white and black. Approximately 70% of males. 25% of women and 5% of children. There was a mother with five children. They were quite friendly, said «good morning» and «good bless you», and many individual approach we thank.
