This is what we should do, live our lives and help the ones that need it as much as we can

I thought it was his grand-mother at 1st and was unimpressed, but now that I know it was a stranger... What a great gesture!

She can move it too a new spot every 72 hours. When the 72 hours is up move it 5ft and your good. Then once that time is up just move it back again

Man that has got to be one of the greatest acts of love I've ever seen that's what everybody should be doing helping one another when you see somebody you need like that look what he did he went totally out of his way even reached into his own pocket to help them reached into his own wallet and and put in the work and cared and that's that's caring in action that's love and action that's the way life should be that's the way people should be my name is Ed Smith

It is with deep regret that I must inform everyone that Elvis says Smokey passed away.

God bless the man for what he did but where is the family of the woman?

Where is the update, he was fined and forced to stop, and it was taken and destroyed. Or is that another story. I am trying to find the update.

Well that's really nice and that bright idea about gofund do he can build other houses that's nice

[MattyIcecubes]

She's gonna be pushing that thing all over LA one street at a time.

I saw this guy’s mission and how the city of LA is trying to shut him down. I have one suggestion: I think if you could build a bike connector on the one side and make it super lightweight, it could be pulled around like a summer fruit stand is pulled. That way the homeless individuals could get around on a bike and return to pick up their home and move it every 72 hours as authorized by the city. Or if no bike, a harness to put around your waist to pull it. But I think the bike idea is sweet…with a lock of course, so no one can steal it (and maybe there’s room inside for the bike…?

That is so honorable what he is doing. You would with Tyler Perry being homeless before fame, he would buy some land and donate to the cause. So that he could build more houses. Not targeting Tyler. But you would think any of the celebrities would take a step and be pleasing to God by helping his children's 🙏🙏. IJS!! Here you have a man taking his hard earning to help the homeless. But the celebrities just see it and keep going. Father God!! Help your children's 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Update to the story, the city took all the many houses he made without any warning.
