The really sad part is that for most minorities financial hardship is a normal thing, whether the economy is booming or in recession.
You wont see a black or asian CEO of a major corporate american company. Most struggle to survive on a minimum salary, cashier level is about as high as most of them get in a company.
there's this homeless camp in birchwood park, by the PLC. I would love to help, but some of them are sadistic or sick in the head so i dont know what to do.
As he reaches a group of tents in what is identifiable as a Mexican encampment, Brigham offers blankets to the people living at the site and tells his amigos where tortillas are being cooked and that he will bring them a big tent the next time he comes.
A short time later Brigham is driving his bus - a motel on wheels - to a site called Shanty Town.
On a regular basis the Rev. Steve Brigham of the Lakewood Outreach Ministry wakes at the crack of dawn to visit 11 campsites in Ocean County. These are not the type of campsites where families go to spend a weekend enjoying nature.
If anyone wants to help out, here is some contact information:
The Rev. Steve Brigham of the Lakewood Outreach Ministry Church may be contacted at (732) 364- 0340 or (732) 814-5537. There is also a post office box at Lakewood Outreach Ministry Church, P.O. Box 326, Lakewood 08701
