You DON T need a passport to travel within California since you already are living here. Just come down the mountain to the San Bernardino area and you will certainly find poor areas. With the state being in a recession, and jobs nearly impossible to find there will be people in need in almost any place you go. Your compassion is commendable.
Unless you guys live in Mexico or somewhere that s not in the US, you do not need a passport to go to California.Some poor places in California include:East LAComptonInglewoodStocktonBakersfieldFresnoGee, you re going in poor places and you expect safety? They re poor for a reason!
There s pockets of poverty in all the major cities of California. In San Diego there is Southeast SD, Linda Vista and Barrio Logan to name three. What you might wish to do is contact the churches in these areas to see about guiding your charitable services into the right peoples homes and families. The churches seem to have a pretty good handle on doing this.Like Sunshine pointed out, you don t need a passport to travel in the U.S. if you are a citizen or are already in the country legally.You spoke of safety and so I reiterate that use should use the churches as a vehicle.Best wishes and I hope you help many people.
There are a lot of poor spots in California... but definitely stick to poor spots in Los Angeles... East L.A.... Compton... Inglewood... a few spots in San Bernardino as well actually... I found it odd you said that doesn t need a passport? what do you mean? If you stay in the U.S. you don t need a passport to travel? Unless you are coming in from another country...
You can go to Compton,California
East Los Angeles.
