the homeless one brown bag at a time!
YouTube's "60 Second Docs" introduced us to this charitable pioneer. Jacqueline, better known as The Brown Bag Lady, started her L.A.-based non-profit with hunger and compassion in mind. She and her crew pack 200 bag lunches every month to hand out amongst the less fortunate in the city's Skid Row.
Not only do they come equipped with food and free haircuts, but the most valuable thing she prides herself on offering is a smile.
"60 Second Doc"
THANK YOU 60 Second Docs for helping shine light on this homeless epidemic in Los Angeles. It was an absolute honor to spend the afternoon with Christopher Stoudt.

This Overachiever Has Dedicated Her Life to Feeding the Homeless
Jacqueline is our latest Pilot Pen Overachiever, and it’s easy to see why. On the first Sunday of every month, she organizes a group of people at her home to make 200 brown bag lunches and hands them out to the homeless community living in Skid Row in Los Angeles. Since 2014, they have handed out over 14,000 meals!

It's so much easier to just turn our head. It's so easy to say "Someone should do something about that." We are all that ... someone! One small act of kindness can be a game changer. This is my one act...
