Homeless man in Toronto: "when you're hungry you don't worry about the cold."

Описание: Rosco is homeless in Toronto, Canada. The weather was below zero with a deadly windchill factor. Some of the biggest risks to homeless people outside in the winter are dehydration and frostbite.

Rosco is lucky. He has a friend that allows him to sleep on a couch to get out of the freezing cold. Rosco still needs money to survive so he panhandles.

Rosco has lived homeless on the streets of Toronto for six years. He says for most of that time he has been on a housing list. Sadly, there is just not enough housing for people. That needs to change if we are ever going to save lives and end homelessness.

About Invisible People:

Since its launch in November 2008, Invisible People has leveraged the power of video and the massive reach of social media to share the compelling, gritty, and unfiltered stories of homeless people from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. The vlog (video blog) gets up close and personal with veterans, mothers, children, layoff victims and others who have been forced onto the streets by a variety of circumstances. Each week, they’re on InvisiblePeople.tv, and high traffic sites such as YouTube, Twitter and Facebook, proving to a global audience that while they may often be ignored, they are far from invisible.

Invisible People goes beyond the rhetoric, statistics, political debates, and limitations of social services to examine poverty in America via a medium that audiences of all ages can understand, and can’t ignore. The vlog puts into context one of our nation’s most troubling and prevalent issues through personal stories captured by the lens of Mark Horvath – its founder – and brings into focus the pain, hardship and hopelessness that millions face each day. One story at a time, videos posted on InvisiblePeople.tv shatter the stereotypes of America’s homeless, force shifts in perception and deliver a call to action that is being answered by national brands, nonprofit organizations and everyday citizens now committed to opening their eyes and their hearts to those too often forgotten.

Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to changing the way we think about people experiencing homelessness.
