#15 Homeless in Cape Town: Meet Donovan

#homelessness #capetown
In this video we speak with Donovan who spends most of his day next to Mochachos in Three Anchor Bay Road. Here he talks about how he was scammed out of his severence pay and lost his house due to entrusting his money with a traditional healer. He talks about living in Observatory as a child in coincidently exactly the same house where the creator of this channel used to live. After this, Donovan covers his time working as a security guard for the City of Cape Town and how he ended up homeless.

My heart is hurting in a huge huge way for this chap. Really do pray you will find a way! Please Father God PLEASE help these people find a way!

Everyone has a story. Those driving past in their flashy cars should realize, there's a very fine line between them and Donovan, it doesn't take much. Then one quickly realizes, when times are dark, friends are few.
