Melaney Walz is a 21-year old mother who has lived in Covenant House in Philadelphia, Pa, Atlantic City, NJ and St. Louis, Mo. She has an 11-month-old son, Marshawn and is five months pregnant with a daughter.
It is the goal of Do1Thing to empower homeless youth to move themselves from homelessness to a permanent housing. Empowerment comes by outfitting the teens with training, items and supplies needed to overcome their current situations move forward.
We partner with Covenant House International, the largest privately-funded agency in the Americas providing shelter and other services to homeless, runaway and throwaway youth. Our second partner is StandUp for Kids. The mission of StandUp for Kids is to help homeless and street kids.
They do this, every day, in cities across America, carrying out their mission through volunteers who go to the streets in order to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and street kids improve their lives.
Do1Thing is a project of the Heart Gallery of New Jersey, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization supported by the generous contributions of individuals, corporations and foundations.
