Homeless in Minneapolis: A YouTube Series

Meet Andy, Nichole, King, Kristy, Navo. There are many others.

Will you help us share their stories?

They're the folks we pass by on the street corners with signs;
those in tents we wonder about.

How did they get here?
How can we help?

We can start by listening and getting to know them. 

Noticing a Minneapolis tent city in the dead of last winter, we began doing just that. 

Getting in there and connecting with their lives reveals the humanity they deserve, insights of what can be done about these chronic issues, and, on occasion, opportunities to offer some real help.

Will you help? 

Co-created by cousins Brandon Ferdig and Krista Nipp, they've published four episodes in what will be an ongoing YouTube series. There’s nothing like this being done. Not in Minneapolis, not anywhere. 

There are about 20 more episodes worth of material from the rest of 2022—winter, spring, summer, and now the fall.

At about $300/episode for just the outside, bare-bones editing help, this comes to $6,000.

Every $300 earned will help pay for the next episode in the series.

Thank you for any support and for caring about getting this issue and getting these stories out there.
