Whenever we hear about “the homeless”, most of us think of the Developing World. But the
is that homelessness is everywhere. For example, how many of us would expect to see people living on the streets of a developed country like Germany?
Kurt Muller and his wife Rita have spent eleven years making
for the homeless of Berlin, the capital of Germany. They first
doing that during a long hot summer when most Germans were
on holiday. Kurt and his wife stayed at home, made sandwiches,
a table in the street and gave food to the homeless.
The Mullers soon realized that food and clothing weren’t
. “What these people also need is warmth and
,” says Rita. The Mullers were always willing to give their phone number to the street people and told them to phone anytime. Rita
there was somebody at home to answer the phone and their home was always
to anyone who couldn’t face another night on the street.
The couple were soon
all their time and money, so Kurt visited food and clothing companies to
donations. Today, over thirty companies regularly donate food and other goods to the cause and volunteers help to
them to the homeless. The public also give clothes and money and a shoe producer even gives away new shoes.
Kurt and Rita receive no payment for their hard work. “We feel like parents,” says Rita, “and parents shouldn’t
money for helping their children. The love we get on the streets is our salary.” Though Rita says she often gets
, she says she will continue with her work because she likes the feeling of having made a
in the world.
