Xavier never dreamed that he’d end up homeless. But at age 13, life on the streets seemed easier than enduring more abuse at home. “It was scary, because you never know where your next meal’s going to come from. It was hunger pains. Not having clean clothes. It felt like hopelessness.” WATCH: Xavier's Story of Hope Thanks to generous friends like you, Xavier is off the streets and has been restored.
