Vegas Stripped: A different kind of charity — VIDEO
(Rachel Aston/Las Vegas Review-Journal)
Homelessness is one of the most complex social issues America faces, and organizations continue to work tirelessly to defeat it.
Instead of adding another place to provide resources, Merideth Spriggs saw an opportunity to assist in the network that already existed.
Her charity, Caridad, is a "concierege" service to the homeless, connecting them to the resources they need and helping them navigate the system. It's a different approach, and so far a successful one.
Check out the video above.
