Mei pt.2
We are happy to welcome back Mei. Mei inspires all of us at Interfaith.\xa0\xa0In Mei\u2019s own words, she \u201csuffered bouts of homelessness throughout her life and has managed to obtain secure housing and push forward through many years of trauma since childhood. \u201c In 2020, Mei opened Daydream, a gift shop located on Grand Avenue in Downtown Escondido, and\xa0launched a separate line selling her handmade\xa0\u201cHumanitote\u201d bags. For every bag sold, Mei donates a\xa0Humanitote\xa0bag to Interfaith filled with toiletries which are given directly to Humans\xa0experiencing homelessness.\xa0\xa0As a business owner, and Interfaith partner, Mei furthered her work by collaborating on an ongoing fundraising event called\xa0Breakfast & Bags\xa0\u201cfor a unified effort in helping Interfaith help our houseless neighbors in need,\u201d\xa0at Sunny Side Kitchen in Escondido where she launches each new Humanitote Collection at the event. We are grateful to Mei and Sunny Side Kitchen for their support! \xa0Breakfast & Bags\xa0are held on the second Saturday of each month\xa0from 8am-12pm.
