Bethany Kludt is passionate about a number of
good causes, including that of helping the
homeless. She understands the need for the
underserved communities within the homeless
population (I.E., those dealing with mental
illnesses, domestic abuse, drug addiction, and
other afflictions), to receive proper assistance
and compassionate guidance out of the plight of
living without the security of a home.

There are many reasons why individuals may face
homelessness, and she is keenly aware that all
too many folks who are simply down-and-out fall
through the cracks.

• Many people experience homelessness for the first
  time due to one or more of the following reasons
• Identity theft or fraud often results in the
  victim being shut-out of their career, community,
  or other life-stabilizing aspect(s) and becoming
  homeless.
• Domestic violence or abuse often results in the
  victim becoming homeless.

Unfortunately, homeless individuals are all too
often marginalized and not treated as individuals
dealing with unique issues. So, even if there was
no need to supply homeless shelters with
financial support, thered always be a need for
good people to show up, so to speak, to the
places that those who have fallen on hard times
go. Being there for someone whos spirit has been
dragged through the mud can mean more to a person
than one might even imagine.
As a soon-to-be resident nurse, Bethany Kludt is
determined to do what she can to help those in
need.
