Hello! My name is Winston Sykes and I thank you for taking the time to hear my story and for your help making my dream come true. I’m having my friend Taylor help me make this video so I can reach as many people as possible. Please Read my story below and may God continue to bless you and surround you with love. Thank you!
Hi! My name is Winston Sykes, I’m 59 years young, and I need your help! I’ve been homeless for the last 25 years, I’ve been clean for (20 years) and I want to change my life for good.
The biggest worry for me and my wife is finding us a roof over our head every night. It’s a burden that doesn’t take a break. With the help and guidance of a few people, they have inspired me to take back my life while constantly reminding me that it’s never too late to make a change. My dream for many years is to go back to school to learn how to read and write, and begin my journey on creating my own non-profit organization so I can begin to help out other people like me that want to change their lives for the better and for forever.
I get less than 900$ a month of social security which I am extremely grateful for, but it only allows me to afford 10 days out of the month at a motel.. for most of the time I’m out here on sunset Blvd in Los Angeles trying to find odd jobs, handyman work, and donations from people willing to help me while remaining hopeful and having faith in God through it all.
I’m asking for your help to raise enough money to get first and last months rent (security deposit) and to buy my own bed in a 1 bedroom studio or room for rent. I’ll be able to pay my rent using my social security, while having the time to get a full time job instead of trying to make enough just for a night at the motel so my wife & I can sleep. If you can help me out in any way, you wouldn’t only be helping me-but you would be giving me the opportunity to help countless others in return for your generosity. Thank you for taking the time to listen to this and May God continue to bless you and guide you ! 
where the money will go:
First & Last month’s rent: 1,640$
Utilities: 100$
Bed & furniture: 300$
Miscellaneous costs: 200$
Total: 2,240$
Thank you!!
