FOUNDER AND FILM MAKER JEFF AKERS IS TELLING THE STORY THROUGH THE CAMERA LENS SO VIEWERS CAN TRULY UNDERSTAND THE DAILY STRUGGLES OF THE HOMELESS IN GREENVILLE, SC. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF PROJECT HOMELESS OUTPOST IS TO RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT HOMELESSNESS IN THE SOUTH, RECRUIT VOLUNTEERS, RAISE ADEQUATE FUNDING, AND EDUCATE THE HOMELESS ABOUT AVAILABLE RESOURCES.
