To those of you who are able to donate, I also want to stress that every dollar and cent donated to Well House will be used by the board and residents of Well House (there are actually 3 houses with 12 residents and 4 live-in staff members currently) to aid the funding of both the houses themselves (installing further solar panels, purchasing seeds and tools for produce farming, etc) as well as several fantastic and forward-thinking programs geared towards transitioning people with housing problems into self-sustaining, self-providing individuals. Rather than relying on government handouts and misappropriated programs that fail to address the housing crisis on its most basic levels, Well House provides a positive, communal environment for struggling people and families that addresses both financial and emotional need, all the while assisting in the general betterment of the community. I don’t mean to drag on or preach or anything, and I’m certainly not trying to guilt you into giving money, but, man, the place is so cool. I can’t stop talking once I start. People can be both extremes, I have a hard time remembering that sometimes.

My number one band, seen them live for the first time on Halloween of '09
ReplyDeleteCheck out there albums, their Here,Hear series does not do them justice alone
I saw a video on youtube of them live, and the singer was amid the crowd, screaming and rolling on the floor. I NEED to see them live.
ReplyDeleteI have Somewhere At The Bottom Of The River Between Vega And Altair, and that album is pretty good. Reminds me of where I wished mewithoutyou didn't veer from in their latest albums. Still, I do need more albums from them.
