Feeding without boundaries

 Golden Anchor Solid Rock Foundation team is going strong in feeding the vulnerable on the streets. The team goes out and looking for the people who are hungry and in a need of food. The mission of the team is to feed. They want to make sure that people on the street do not go without food. The challenge is that they do not have enough food or funding to provide food to these people. The people are showing appreciation for the work that the team is doing. 

In the below picture the person said to the team they must also give food to her partner. She gave them directions to the place where the team can find her partner. The people on the street are looking at the wellbeing of the others on the street.
