Robert Jett, center, volunteered his time this past Saturday morning to help sort and distribute winter clothing to homeless individuals in Gainesville.
As volunteers sort through men’s and women’s clothing, from jeans to jackets to sweaters and scarves, the Rev. Victor Lamar Johnson of the Veterans & Community Outreach Foundation looks on with a sly grin. “We’re not going to stop,” he said. “There’s more homeless that need to be helped.”
