In the fall of 2023, Love Does connected with Beranice, a mother of two who was faced with homelessness. Beranice began volunteering with the Love Does Mobile Food Pantry at the Monarch School in San Diego, bagging groceries weekly for other families struggling with homelessness. As a result, a friendship was quickly formed between Beranice and the Love Does team.
For several months, Beranice and her children lived in their car while waiting for housing. Her son’s epilepsy made this particularly challenging. In the spring of 2024, Beranice received an apartment in San Diego through a local housing program and we stepped in to help make it feel like home!
The highlight of this experience was seeing Beranice’s reaction to her new home and furnishings. Our team celebrated with a housewarming party where she served homemade tacos on her new dishware!
