Pog - His rolling home is a classic . We always take his doggy extra food from Del's and bring him a broke da mouth plate lunch.
He needs safe haven from the street,if you can help him out,even a few nights a week and you will have an honest drug free and alcohol free friend for life.

He used to own a home in Ainaloa - then was foreclosed on after he lost his job and had some serious medical issues.
Could happen to any one of us.He refuses to get EBT food stamps or any govt help.
He is slipping into his own dementia but some of us do help him out from our church group.
A good way to meet him,and to know him better,is to buy him a plate lunch or grinds for his dog.Or even a 5 dollar bill will help a bunch.
He has a hardened street outside but as a fellow human,he is very smart and kind and full of compassion.
Some in our church help him with clean cloths or even a hair cut from time to time.
It will take more than just a hello,to gain his trust.
To know him ,if he allows you in,is to help out his dog 1st.
We have a hanai nephew and niece who has a two year old daughter with special needs who may be able help you out.

Pog - it took us over 3 years to gain his trust.
He is one of our fave homeless in all of east Hawaii Island.
We always are looking for him and when we do,he has a bright smile,especially for Mrs.Mimosa .
Del's saves us ripped dog food bags to donate to him,5 pounds at a time.
He also drinks a certain type of soda in a liter half bottle ,it is his personal comfort food.
Take the time and patience and you will hear an earful of mostly negative street life but under all that is a proud and honest man.
