But have you ever seen the other side?
Trying to find shelter and warmth
Over 3 400 men, women, and children are counted as homeless in Calgary.
2 800 homeless people sleep in shelters every night including 145 families with children.
Many people think that homeless people are just a bunch of drunks and addicts, who are too lazy to work.
But that is NOT true, only 30% of homeless people have addiction problems, 53% suffer from mental illnesses.
There are over 304 children in Calgary that are homeless
This year help the homeless by donating to The Mustard Seed and Inn From The Cold.
