Los Angeles Homeless Woman Has Part-time Job and Lives in a Tent.

Olga was renting a little house, but the people taking her money were not the owners. She ended up losing everything and eventually became homeless in Los Angeles.

After trying to sleep on the streets, Olga eventually got a tent to live in. She would walk all night because homelessness is dangerous.

Olga has a part-time job cleaning offices in Northridge, which is an hour or more bus ride each way from where her tent is. Imagine getting off work and your only choice is to come home to a tent in downtown Los Angeles.

Olga shares about the challenges for homeless people going to the bathroom and taking showers. She mentions they now have a shower. Olga is referring to a make-shift shower the small tent community made that consists of a large rectangle box for privacy and a water jug at the top. I'll post a photo of it in the community section.

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.
