Yesterday & today- Stories of hope
Willie started his life in the “Windy City” born into a middle-class family. His life changed when he was a teen, when his parents separated. That is when his difficulties in school began. Willie had a learning disability and did not graduate from high school. When his mother, a nurse, passed away, not only did he become involved with drugs, but his siblings eventually all went their separate ways. Willie ultimately became homeless...

Willie: Yesterday and Today Willie started his life in the “Windy City” born into a middle-class family. His life changed when he was a teen when his parents separated. That is when his difficulties in school began. Willie had a learning disability and did not graduate from high school. When his mother, a nurse, passed away, not only did he become involved with drugs, but his siblings eventually all went their separate ways. Willie ultimately became homeless. And so, a cycle of homelessness and drugs had begun. Willie married and became a father to two girls. Due to drinking and drugs, he left Chicago in 1991 and came to California to live with an aunt. Although he received Social Security due to his disability, he found it necessary to commit petty theft in order to eat and pay his way. Finally, he entered the criminal justice system. A skill he learned in prison was landscaping, which he still loves. When he got out of prison, he avoided his old friends and associates and went into reentry housing. However, he found the conditions at the home unbearable, and again, he became homeless. In 1994, Willie came to COA for hot meals and was soon hired to work in the dining room, unload trucks, and do janitorial tasks. He also began working at the Queen Mary as a parking attendant. COA located housing for him, but after being homeless and in prison for so many years, it was difficult for him to be around groups of people. When the Queen Mary learned he had been in prison, they let him go. He again lost his housing. Finally, Willie became employed at a Church and started speaking to community groups such as lawyers and police officers letting them know what it is like to reenter society after serving time. He now has his own single apartment. His message is, “We all do the "best" we can to serve Jesus.” Make a Donation to COA COA is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) and is not government funded.

About us OUR MISSION Christian Outreach in Action (COA) is a non-denominational non-profit organization whose mission is to Transform the lives of homeless and impoverished individuals in Long Beach and Greater Los Angeles since 1981 so they may reach and sustain self-sufficiency and independence. Get Involved our vision Changing the lives of those in need Releasing the stressors of food insecurity Reducing the homeless count Helping low-income individuals and families become more self-sufficient Helping vulnerable populations reach their full potential 59% of Americans Find Themselves "One Paycheck Away" from Homelessness 64% increase in homelessness in Long Beach since 2020 Read More 82% of the primary issues were found to be from rising housing costs what we do our story For more than four decades, our presence has been a beacon of hope in the heart of our community, extending a helping hand to those facing economic hardships in Long Beach and Greater LA. Every day, we strive to make a difference by providing essentials like food, diapers, and more to anyone in need. In our journey, we stand as a lifeline for those experiencing tough times, including the homeless, seniors, struggling families, and individuals yearning for a glimmer of hope. We believe in the power of compassion and resilience, inspiring others to believe in brighter tomorrows. At the core of our mission lies a commitment to serve with love and empathy. We are the sole agency in Long Beach offering hot meals every single day, along with vital amenities like public restrooms and a five-day-a-week food bank. Our array of programs, from serving nutritious harty hot meals, distributing fresh produce, senior programs, to providing essential items like clothing and furniture, aims to uplift spirits and restore dignity. None of this would be possible without the unwavering support of our dedicated donors and volunteers. It's their selflessness and generosity that fuels our efforts and enables us to touch countless lives. We are not government-funded, relying solely on the kindness of individuals like you. Whether it's a struggling senior, a single mother, or someone who has lost everything due to unforeseen circumstances like the pandemic, we are here to offer a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness. As we move forward, we remain steadfast in our commitment to serving our community with compassion and dedication. Together, let us continue to be beacons of light, spreading kindness and inspiring change in the lives of those who need it most. In the bustling city of Long Beach, there lived a man named Jack Jensen. Born and bred in the heart of the community, Jack possessed an unyielding determination to make a difference. He was a pretty normal guy, but he had a goal to become a millionaire by the time he was 30. He went to college while working at Edison and got his CPA while also making many wise investments in local commercial real estate. By the time he turned 30, Jack was certainly rich; however he was also an alcoholic and a drug addict. He woke up one morning and realized his life was not what he had imagined it to be. He was miserable, and went out on a search for answers. Jack's journey took an unexpected turn when he found himself drowning in the depths of addiction, his dreams overshadowed by despair. But even in his darkest moments, Jack refused to succumb to defeat. Seeking solace and guidance, he sought refuge at Christ Lutheran Church, where a simple yet profound message from the pastor ignited a spark within him: "Get out of yourself and do for others." Inspired by these words, Jack embarked on a transformative quest for meaning. From the refugee camps of Cambodia to the impoverished streets of Mexico, he dedicated himself to serving those in need, finding fulfillment in acts of compassion. Yet, amidst his global endeavors, Jack couldn't ignore the plight of the homeless in his own backyard. Driven by a desire to effect change closer to home, he turned his attention to the federal food bank in Long Beach. There, he lent his time and expertise, striving to alleviate the suffering of the marginalized. It was during his service at the food bank that Jack made a startling revelation – canned goods alone couldn't address the hunger faced by the homeless without access to a kitchen. Determined to bridge this gap, Jack embarked on a new mission. One fateful day, as he cruised the streets of Long Beach in his trusty Volkswagen van, Jack stumbled upon a beacon of hope – a kitchen for rent at 515 E. Third Street. With unwavering resolve, he seized the opportunity, transforming the space into a sanctuary of nourishment and compassion. Gathering volunteers from local churches, Jack breathed life into the kitchen, turning it into a hub of community support. Over the years, the kitchen became a symbol of hope, serving thousands of meals to those in need and fostering a sense of belonging among the marginalized. Today, Jack's legacy lives on, a testament to the power of one man's passion for service. Through his unwavering commitment and tireless dedication, he proved that a single act of kindness has the potential to ignite a ripple of change, shaping the fabric of a community for generations to come.
