Nikki Johnson-Huston was trying to help. She saw a man outside a convenience store asking for change and offered him $5 to get something to eat. When she stepped inside, he followed behind and turned her small gesture into a pack of cigarettes. The exchange left her unsatisfied.

Johnson-Huston has been there before. She’s lived in hotels and motels, bounced from couch to guest room and back, spent time sleeping on floors and in shelters. She knows about day-to-day living and what it means to truly rely on the kindness of a community. And she wanted to do something more—for the man buying cigarettes and for anyone else in his place.
