2012 People Helping People

"Every Thursday" will feature people of creativity and/or ideas of leadership throughout their work.

Los Angeles, California the home for Hollywood's glamour, awesome weather in the Winter, and the highest population of homelessness in the nation. In the shadows of Downtown LA, lies the community of Skid Row. A community once known for its hard workers and now it is a neighborhood for charity, good deeds and special care.

Some important Homeless Facts...

• On an average night in the 23 cities surveyed, 94 percent of people living on the streets were single adults, 4 percent were part of families and 2 percent were unaccompanied minors. 
• The average length of stay in emergency shelter was 69 days for single men, 51 days for single women, and 70 days for families.  For those staying in transitional housing, the average stay for single men was 175 days, 196 days for single women, and 223 days for families. 
• In the City of Los Angeles in January 2011 there were an estimated 23,539 homeless persons, which represents a 9% decrease from the prior count. 
• What is the public's responsibility for the homeless, can city government handle this on their own?

For 12 years, California Muslim Communities have organized themselves together as the Coalition to Preserve Human Dignity (CPHD). Volunteers, Organizations and Institutions sharing collective resources for Humanitarian Day (H-Day) projects. Humanitarian Day is a direct social service that provides; hot meals, clothing, medical examinations and essential care that is normally unavailable for people in transition and/or homeless.

H-Days are held during the month of Ramadan, when Muslims fast for 30 days during sunlight hours. H-Day founded by the ILM Foundation, who organize by identifying leadership, creating relief and build community organizations to sustain urban life... in Los Angeles, Oakland, Long Beach, South Central, the Inland Empire, Pasadena, Bakersfield and Dallas - making an effort to please the Creator.

Humanitarian Day on Fresno ABC30

The Coalition to Preserve Human Dignity in Fresno, California coordinated by Karim Hakim of MY DEEN, held its first Humanitarian Day. #peoplehelpingpeople

People Helping People Campaign

In the last 11 years Americans have experienced hardships, downturns, and phobias of all kinds. No one group is untouched by America's domestic issues and current transition. National Unemployment rate is 9.1% (May 2011) and 14.8% (43.6 Million) are uninsured without Health Care.

There is no simple solution in resolving America's issues. "People Helping People" can help revive the hearts of Americans, by Neighbors simply providing Neighborly Needs (Small Kindnesses). The Coalition to Preserve Human Dignity has started a 2012 grassroots and online campaign for awareness of a simple ethic - sincere generosity. We would like to reach out to the American People; who desire to re-iterate negativity and counteract phobias by organizing around simple goodness.

"People Helping People”  is a campaign for communities to embrace humanitarian projects, which target the disadvantaged – the unsheltered, unemployed and the mentally ill. H-Day is a model of Social Empowerment and Economic Development, SEED, which is an ILM division. We are generating active resources for institutionalizing local relief efforts.

The Coalition to Preserve Human Dignity (CPHD) expanded in 2004 initiating its focus on Californian cities such as Downtown LA, Orange County, Long Beach, Fresno and Oakland – where the cities' homeless population appears to be the most impoverished and vulnerable groups in our nation. Humanitarian Day is a wonderful way to organize people and organizations who have been blessed with resources and time to share those blessings with the needy.

“People Helping People” delivers an innate social message for responsibility in the United States. Convert One Day into a Life’s Mission an advocacy not just for homelessness, as well as education and addressing socio-economic policies that divide the people's unity and effectiveness. Procuring resources and ideas such as; revive employment strategies, healthcare needs, the basics, hygienic care and other relevant necessities according to local demographic research.

"Assume the position and gain the victory!"

Note: the "People Helping People" Hygiene Kit, which started in July 2011, has already generated over a 1000 hygiene kits for local relief. This drive is coordinated by the CPHD High School Youth Leaders and New Leadership in Los Angeles and Orange County, empowerment.

To Get Involved is Simple, and you say how....

1. Take to your social online profiles on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, etc.... and use these hash tags responsibly, #peoplehelpingepeople, #cphd (coalition to preserve human dignity) and #hday (humanitarian day). Associate these tags with a wise gesture, thoughtful considerations; whether it's local, domestic, or international charity expression. End your emails with #peoplehelpingpeople instead of the normal salutations. Free your mind with this concept and be active.
2. If you are an institution providing resources and you're seeking an experienced organization to facilitate or grant resources for domestic work, contact us and let's begin the process. The Humanitarian Day Organization is very unique within its thought process. We focus on the service and the people, by remaining sincere and relevant.
3. Help your family, neighbors, co-workers with Small Kindnesses (within your means). Correct your behavior before correcting the next person.
4. Stabilize mental behaviors and physical desires in a paradigm of coordinated discipline and/ or productive respected mannerism; such as Ramadan, the Holidays or Hanukkah - according to your belief or faith that promotes us being a better person (for a year round nature).
5. Be Helpful - Stopping at 5, because the list can go on,

These are 5 ways you can become involved with CPHD's online social campaign "People Helping People", the rest is up to you. Our mission is Convert One Day into a Life's Mission by putting faith into action.
