OPEN LETTER TO WAIKIKI HEALTH CENTRE

Today I say one of your outreach workers administering to one of the homeless in Waikiki.

The homeless man in question is well known to you, as you have reached out to him in the past. Provided housing and even went so far as to deliver his medicines to his homeless address, a bus stop bench on the beach.

The homeless man in question is a raging alcoholic and seems to thrive on getting cash from the tourists who feel sorry for him. Might explain why he keep returning to his old living situation.

This was the first time I actually say one of your our reach workers in action. It made me wonder.

Why is this homeless man getting so much attention? Is he more worthy of help than any other homeless person in Waikiki?

When will someone from your organization do out rwach to some of the other needy homeless? Like a 70 year old man sleeping on a bench, or a older local man with swollen legs and bleeding sores?

When is enough, enough?
