Do you know the definition of homelessness?
The homeless definition from the
federal law is ‘lacking a
fixed, regular and adequate nighttime residence.’ HUD’s definition includes people living in shelters,
transitional housing, or on the streets or other outdoor locations.
Information from National Homeless states that approximately
2.4% of homeless persons die every year which is about 13,000 out of half a
million. When you think about it,
homelessness is a significant health risk for individuals. Having a roof above your head becomes a
matter of life and death, according to homeless statistics.

About us
We believe in blessing others all the time
The mission of Blessing Others All the Time (BOATT) is to serve others with love by providing for those experiencing homelessness, Veterans, Seniors, Students, and under-served communities. We want to be the resources they need for their daily walks of life. Base upon the scriptures in Luke 6:38 which tells us that if we give, it will be given back to us and Galatians 5:13 which tells us that we should serve one another in LOVE. since COVID-19, we have expanded our mission to provide more resources to more people, which includes assistance with getting birth certificates, food stamps, groceries, utilities, etc. if funds are available.
Mission
We love serving our veterans and all our constituents.
Veteran receiving gifts for Christmas
We love serving our veterans. We provide lunch to them throughout the year. We also assist them with items they need to get back into employment or to get into housing. Whatever we are able to assist them with throughout the year, we will do it.
school supplies for students
2025 we provided over 800 plus book bags and school supplies to the community and R. L. Brown Academically Talented School. We want to provide ongoing school supplies throughout the school year to students. We also want to be able to provide them with backpacks and school supplies at the beginning of the school year.
We were also blessed from VyStar Credit Union with assisting us with so many supplies to provide to the students. Thank you VyStar Credit Union. We appreciate you so much for this partnership.
Partnering and collaboration is the key to having a successful organization.
