We hope you will take a few minutes to complete our polls so that STA can address key areas of improving, understanding and increasing your support. Based on these poll results, it is our hope to focus and address key issues raised by your input.
Helping the very poor, the underprivileged, the homeless, is Straight Ahead’s “KEY FOCUS” – which cannot be accomplished without your belief in and financial support of our organization.
STA wants to be sure that our organization is understood, valued and provides meaning to you, as well as those we help.
Thank you, Lance Greene/Founder
I believe a homeless outreach should connect with people, addressing their needs individually. It would be better to help ONE person successfully take back their life, rather than to feed a whole herd of people a few times then dump them out on the street as statistics. Currently there seems to be no system in place for any outreach to do more than apply a few band-aids. I believe this is due to lack of effective appropriation and distribution of funds. I believe that huge organizations that label and slot people into categories are doing a major disservice to the homeless and needy population. Imagine how much more effective help could be provided by smaller organizations, properly funded, that see human beings beneath the need. Funding is vital to those with a heart for working with individuals, teaching them each how to recover from their dire situations and live more independently.
Awesome comments Gwen! Thank you for taking the time to write them!
