SUMMARY
People who make good decisions don't end up homeless, right? Urban Ministries of Durham wanted to challenge this perception and change the national conversation about homelessness. Without any paid media. So we created an online game where players must survive a virtual month on $1,000 rent, groceries, car expenses, child field trips, vet bills and all. Across the globe, in classrooms and even in collections employee training sessions, millions of people are living on the brink. And UMD raised more than $34,000 on a site not optimized for donations.
