BOE California Loves the Community

Ellen Van Der Bosch from BOE Laguna Niguel CA branch has founded a group called Textwhich.org. Missing addicts are located who are living on the streets. Many are from all over the United States and walked away from rehabs with nothing but the clothes on their backs. This leaves frantic families wondering where to start to look for them while they are hundreds or thousands of miles away from home.

47% of cases were located by both distributing fliers online, nationwide, as well as by putting individual messages (text) on sandwiches (wich) with a head shot of our missing subject. There are almost 1,000 volunteers across the country.
Volunteers then distribute sack lunches with these messages on them on the streets and parks where subjects might be. The meal recipients then provide us with clues on sightings and places as to where they have been sighted. Ellen has had the opportunity hand the sack lunches to the subjects personally on three different occasions! Food trucks have donated meals and put a wall of missing people fliers for Bee Fed Events.

Ellen also has Facebook support groups for families with missing people and moms who love street kids. Right now Ellen and her team are working in the Santa Ana Civic Center to provide action plans to get the homeless off the streets. The city is removing hundreds of tents just as winter months are approaching. On December 2 Bee Fed LA on skid row was planned. They are partnering with other groups to provide blankets and clothes and a hot meal while the missing person display wall is looked at.
