The Brixton Soup Kitchen Helping The Homeless | Amazing Humans

When Solomon was just 11, he would give food packages to homeless people he passed on the way to school, but, as an adult he has taken things to the next level.
Five years ago he used his own wages to start up a soup kitchen in his home town of Brixton and he has been dedicated to helping those who are struggling in the community ever since.

They "might" be ok here, but ive got a homeless homeboy who says either the guy on grill- army vet? - or the lady in front passing out cookies this morning put some funny type shit in his eggs or cookies. He said his lips felt chapped afterward like some type of crushed up powder pills were mixed in. Real nice people he said, but that could just mean a veneer hiding a paid off devil underneath the facade. Moral to story? NEVER trust food made by folks you DONT KNOW. PERIOD! The way he told it to me, and knowing his perception /intellect tells me he's not wrong. If you're homeless get out of ut cuz people prey on and use y'all for their own gain. Quit being blinded with frivolous words from bad actors- move FORWARD

[@okBiGOTu]

Oh and also, he says a binch of homeless act innocent and like they're great folks, but if anyone offers them even a five dollar bill to do anything, i mean ANYTHING, even if its wrong, they'll do it. I guess hes trying to say all homeless can be bought off and used like the absolute tools they are. They... "Like" being another man's tool, apparently, and taking that 5 to do wrong tells me they have no integrity 💯

[@sabbirahmed6347]

what a great human being...

[@maricela21hernandez]

That's amazing. A clear example of the positive ripple effects because of his compassion. He is definitely a light worker.

[@thegoodscientistsdaughter7236]

My dream is to serve my great grandmothers soups. She served in her church, sleeping with the homeless women and children every weekend to keep them safe until she was almost 90 years old in downtown Seattle. She also served our family with nothing but love and compassion. My aunt serves the veterans on the peninsula. It's a true calling and once it hits you there truly is nothing more rewarding than knowing your healthy meal made with love and your kind words helped someone. I'm happy to be a part of this journey and love seeing others on the same path, it melts my heart❤
