Notice how it’s never the Republican-run cities in the “Bible Belt” actually treating people the way Jesus would want us to… This time, it’s Seattle who found a new way to help people who are homeless ❤️ They built a village of tiny houses! Each house is about 8 feet by 12 feet. That's about the size of a small bedroom. The houses have electricity and heat. There is also a central building with bathrooms and showers. Residents pay $90 a month to cover the cost of utilities like sewage and electric — less than one-tenth the price of a normal apartment! The goal is to help people get back on their feet. Many residents have jobs and use the tiny house to save money. They stay for a few months while they look for a permanent home. The houses cost about $2,200 each to build. Donations paid for the materials and volunteers built them. The Low Income Housing Institute runs the village and provides support services. It's a simple idea that gives people privacy, warmth, and a sense of dignity. One resident said it's "a lot less stressful" because he can think about the future instead of worrying about where he will sleep each night 🥰 📸: Fouled Up Facts
