More Street Torah

“Street Torah was an incredible experience. I learned about personal stories of homeless people that opened my eyes to the humanity of the people on the streets.” – Rebecca P, Woodland Hills, CA

“Street Torah completely changed how I view homeless people. I learned that they have stories to tell. I also learned that the reason we don’t see many homeless people is because it’s really embarrassing to them. When I return home I plan on continuing to help restore their dignity.” – Josh L, Jamesville, NJ

“The most meaningful experience I’ve had the past week was Street Torah. It really opened my eyes to homelessness.” – Andi M, Sugarland, TX

“Doing Street Torah for the second time was extremely inspiring because it was a completely different experience. The people all have unique and interesting stories to share, and the more we go, the more we can learn.” – Marissa C, Orange, OH
