Josh was always a sweet-hearted sensitive boy. He struggled with insecurities his whole life. He had a heart for homeless people and would literally cry at times when he saw them. Josh was born into a family that had the alcoholism gene on both sides. He also struggled with depression. In his teenage years he tried alcohol, along with many others...unfortunately this became his way to feel better
and in no time was trapped in the horrible disease of alcoholism. About Us
Josh’s Heart, Inc. We have created Josh's Heart, in memory of Joshua Brent Moore, who died August 12, 2016, from complications due to alcoholism at just 32 years old. Though Josh suffered from alcoholism and homelessness throughout his life, it is not what defined him. He was a kind hearted, loving, and tremendously giving human being. He had friends and family just like anyone else. While others saw a homeless person asking for money on the street, others saw a brother, son, cousin and uncle who loved deeply. While most would see a person in and out of rehabilitation, others saw a friend who would give what little he had to help them out. Like many others in our homeless/addicted communities, his situation often left him feeling insignificant, depressed and unlovable. We, Josh’s Heart, aspire to reach out to these people who feel lost and forgotten. The people who have been cast aside and feel worthless due to their current circumstances. We strive to show these people the TRUTH- That THEY ARE MORE THAN THEIR CURRENT CIRCUMSTANCES. They matter, are loved, and were placed on this earth by God with purpose. Our Goals
- To continually provide Blessing Backpacks filled with grooming essentials, seasonal items, snacks and waters to those out on the street who do not have anywhere to live.
- To provide addiction awareness and education to family members and friends as well as those at risk.
- To organize events and drives that will help the homeless and addicted communities. We will continue to trust in God to lead us in the direction needed. Josh’s Heart is a reflection of the huge heart that Josh Moore had. Through Josh’s Heart Inc, his heart can keep on beating.
