Joshua's Heart

Inspiring, motivating, incredible. This begins to describe Joshua Williams, a young man with a quest to make a difference in the lives of people on the streets of Miami. He and his team have now fed over 300 thousand people.

But food is not the only thing those people in need have received. They also have hope. Joshua has enlisted 12 thousand volunteers—all young people, some of them 12 years old, who have found, in an unexpected way, purpose and meaning through service.

Enjoy our new PSA and discover that “love” is in you.

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

VOICEOVER (Joshua Williams)

When you think of Miami, you think of, you know: rich, glamor...
but five miles away from the beach there's people who've never seen the beach.
I was confused why somebody was is in this situation especially in America.
So when I started Joshua's Heart Foundation, it was a key thing to be able to engage youth in the foundation—to help them participate.
I think passing on the torch and lighting a new flame in another person to do good is probably the point of the bigger mission that I have.
So we are each making a bigger difference.

That's it... just giving back and producing love for everybody.

What a blessing you are Joshua Williams. You make humanity proud. Encouraging our young to take initiative and help others is wonderful and it teaches them what so many of our adults have yet to learn - that helping others blesses us and gives us the best feelings possible. Thank you for your beautiful heart.

Homelessness, poverty and hunger should not be an issue in our country, yet it continues to be, and includes a serious number of our youths. How sad is that? Kudos to this young man for having this vision! Be the light.

Joshua you are an exceptional young man and your parents raised you well, You are Amazing, you inspired me, and touched my soul. I'm so happy that there are still young men and young ladys like yourself that have hearts, and haven't been impacted by society. I thank you for being who you are. You gave me hope for my kid's.

Being a member of Joshua's Heart Foundation and sit on the Junior Advisory Board is nothing less than an honor. I encourage and invite all youth and parents to visit one of our events and learn more about how you too can get involved and begin your volunteer work for the community and slowly spread your own wings and oneday lead other efforts of your own.

It has been a joy to get to know Joshua and watch him impact the world around him a profound way. While some may be tempted to let praise and publicity go to their head, Joshua remains a grounded, humble, insightful young man whose sole purpose is to stop hunger one family at a time. I am overjoyed to see his efforts being promoted and celebrated. Joshua is living proof that one person truly can make a difference!

Bridjette Hoilett Green from Miami Beach FL OCTOBER 16, 2017
I have known Joshua since he was five years old. It touched my heart to hear that he wanted to open his foundation! I have watched him develop and grow, but most importantly his dedication to his goal to Stomp out Hunger is heart warming. Josuha is truly an example to us all. He shows how perseverance in a dream can accomplish great things! He is truly one of my inspirations!!
