Why can the Kenyan man go to a shelter?
A man asked her if she was okay being taken to a shelter for the homeless, but she declined, saying that they were kind of dirty to her.
“There are multiple people at a shelter. Do you have pocket change? I want to buy a pot pie,” she said pitifully.
“She is actually a refugee from Africa, Kenya, and I have been trying to offer her help, but she does not want any help. She came from Kenya and became homeless not too long ago; she has been homeless for two years. Loving in a doghouse is sad and a pathetic reality of the streets of Portland,” said a well-wisher.
According to the man who passed by her dog kennel, thousands of cars pass by the dog kennel but never want to help the young lady because they think it is her choice to live that way.

“I live in portland oregon and work with refugees, I can tell u that she isn’t kenyan. She might have come here from kenya as a refugee from a different country, which is common. Kenyans don’t come to USA as refugees. FYI most of the pple on the street refuse help. Even though she can get free shelter and food, she choose this to avoid rules. I know exactly where this is, might follow up en see wat she says #justsaying.”
