A scooter to help James off the streets

I met James Richardson four weeks ago (Feb 2023). James is homeless on the Streets of San Francisco and I decided to buy him lunch and ask about his story because he has the friendliest eyes and somehow stays optimistic despite the cards he's been dealt. James loves to write, and together we decided we wanted to write a book about 9 homeless people on Haight street, but James received a nasty blow. He'd been saving for months for a "Valera Eagle One" scooter (~$1700) so he could do Uber Eats and stop panhandling... it's his first step to get off the streets, but his scooter was stolen.

With the money you provide, we'll buy James a new scooter.... plus any left-over money will go towards a huge lock and tracking device, and anything else in cash.

This is my first kickstarter I've setup, and to help show this is legit here's more pictures of James:

... and here's the book we want to write:

Scooter first... then the book!

Bless you if you contribute.... and/or post this around. :)
