Homelessness Project with Second Shot Coffee

 As part of our homelessness project the Rights Respecting Steering Group as well as the School Council formed a partnership with Second Shot Coffee.

Second Shot is a coffee shop that employs homeless people who then go on to living a better life as skilled citizens. The owner of the café, Julius, started his dream during his years in college. He took some time out of his educational life in order to work on his company, Second Shot.

This actions  help us support article 29, Goals of education- encourage a child’s respect for human rights, and article 13 the right to freedom of expression/voice.
 
This year, we decided to set up a coat rack in the playground in order to collect coats, gloves, scarves & hats for the homeless. After we collected several coats, we set up another coat rack in front of Second Shot for Homeless people to take whenever they needed a coat.
