Stories like these not only humble ourselves after reading them, but makes us also realize that there " Really Are " good people still in society...

Just the name alone of the shelter tells you alot about the organization. Somebody really put some effort and thought into that name. Some may say...its " just a name " but I think there's more to it than just a name. Some shelters focus on first and foremost helping people in need with a roof and medical help and food and job opportunities which is amazing just for that, but these people that run One80 had it in thier mind ahead of time that not only did they want do help with the things just mentioned, they were thinking Long Term and a complete life changing experience.

And for this man to get a business opportunity in being partners, that just shows the good in people and also knowing that someone, a stranger almost thought so highly of him.
His family must be so proud of him, I am !!

Great story and thanks for posting this.
