When You Have a Home

A man who lost the short game of life… A man named John got kicked out of his apartment and got evicted because of his lack of money. John is also jobless. This poor guy lives in the rich state of New York. His mom passed away and his dad did too. Eventually one day he's out on the street sleeping and he gets woken up by a rich man. He says “hey um do you want any help?” John says “yeah”, so this man gave him 1000$ and said "pay it forward, we’re all humans" and the man said "i'm not gonna let another person stay out here." After a year later John is living happily in his home that stays with him in this short game of life that we all play but the most important thing is we all have good and bad memories. We have lovers and fighters that fight for this short game. This is what Habitat for Humanity can do for families.
