Every year during the holidays, volunteers of the Hosea Feed The Hungry And Homeless, Inc.” comes together to feed the homeless. During this holiday, they serve food, provide showers, clothing, barber services and entertain the homeless while they eat their meal. On Thanksgiving day, Prince Nephew & DaMill along with the QMS Girls, performed with a song and dance for the homeless families in downtown Atlanta at the World Congress Center. Hosea and his wife Juanita Williams, founded the nonprofit organization as a provision to provide food, shelter and clothing to the homeless. They say, “We can prevent homelessness, provide children with tools for school, seniors with fresh fruits and vegetables and continue our 47-year journey to alleviating the effects of poverty on our families.”

One woman says, “I was able to be a blessing to a special organization that help so many people especially families with children in need. It was more than a privilege! I can remember donating financially and it always helps them to do more each and every time. Each year they give so much and provide the very best for people and I was able to be apart of that. I have a passion to help others and it makes me feel good to even be able to do that...meeting someone else’s needs instead of my own all the time! It means a lot to me to see that we can make a difference in the smallest of ways in many different areas of the world and for that I am forever grateful!” OASIS/Montage January • February 2019 13
