Letter to the mayor.
Dear mayor Bloomberg, don’t you think is important to have more shelter house in our city? I think you should consider it, because a shelter house is really promising to our city. This is an important dissection because building a shelter house we need lots of money which only you have right to do. Building a homeless shelter is beneficial for New York City because it will provide job improvement, community education, and would be better for the environment.
Building a homeless shelter is good for New York City because it will increase jobs. First of all, a homeless shelter can provide an opportunity for construction workers. In order to build the shelter we will need to hire different workers. We need carpenters, engineers, plumbers, electricians and painters. Currently the unemployment rate is very high. Hiring people to build the shelter is going to lower unemployment. Secondly, there are some homeless who need help from social workers like old people need support from the city. After finishing school, social workers will have a chance to find employment working in the shelter. And some people have children physical problem which is social worker can help. Finally, building a homeless shelter will help to give a chance for doctors and nurses to work. Homeless people need medical attention, so doctors and nurses can get jobs in the shelter house to take care the special person who they have moving problem, so they can have in the shelter house job. A homeless shelter provides many different jobs.
Building a homeless shelter would be helpful for homeless peoples’ education. First of all, twenty percent of homeless people are illiterate in New York City. The homeless need to be taught how to read and write. The homeless people could get those abilities in shelters through study programs like reading groups. This is going to be beneficial to the city because homeless people could get a better job. After they have finished their study they could get job in city or in any private place. Reason is, they will have qualifications to seeking for job. Secondly, a homeless shelter could encourage homeless people to improve their job skills and they could learn manual labor like carpentry or sewing when they finished their education. They will able to find more professional job which way they can make more money. Thirdly, reducing homeless is also depends on our education. If we have to focus on this situation. We really have to think about those people who are surviving on the street. When homeless people have the proper education, they will have good money paying job and that’s the way they will afford their living. And we can reduce the homeless from the city.
Also shelter house is helpful for our environment. When they get house to live, they will get trained by people shelter house how to maintain the house and keep the street clean like throwing the garbage in the right place. First of all, it will keep clean the street from the shabbiness. When homeless people live on the street they used the street as garbage dump. They will know how to live in proper way when they get the shelter house. Secondly, shelter house will be an example for other community people. Other community people will know to keep clean the environment. If you make the shelter house for homeless people, they will learn to stay in the house and uses of the house. So other community people will try to do the same shelter house and that will be an example for other community. Thirdly, this is the opportunity to maintain our environment clean in New York City. A shelter house is one of the impotent matter because the environment depends on homeless people because they makes the street shabby by throwing their used closes and leftover food. Also they urinate on the street and try to spend their life on the street. So that’s make the environment dirty and odor. So shelter house is the best way to support homeless people and maintain the environment clean.
I think a homeless shelter will be the best choice for our city and it will make our life safety and healthy. This is really important for our future generations. My request to you is to is think about this homeless shelter situation. We will be happy with your decision.
