A man builds a small house for a homeless woman who had to spend ten years sleeping in the mud.

Few individuals spend the time to get to know a homeless person and discover how they came to be living alone on the streets.

However, a hero in Los Angeles did come to know the homeless woman who was camped out outside his house and took amazing action to aid.

Since her husband passed away and she lost her home ten years ago, Irene “Smokie” McGee has been residing on the streets of south Los Angeles.

The 60-year-old spent her nights sleeping on the ground while collecting recycling each day to sell so she could buy meals.

She spent most of her nights camped out in front of an apartment complex, where one resident got to know her and learned her tale.

“She’s a human being, a 60-year-old mother and grandmother sleeping in the dirt, it’s just not right,” a local named Elvis Summers said.

Built a tiny house for Irene in 5 days After becoming friends, Elvis decided to build her a house since he couldn’t tolerate the sight of her sleeping on the streets every night.

The good-hearted neighbor constructed her house using $500 worth of wood that he had purchased, siding and roofing donated by a nearby business, and his own construction skills.

I merely wanted to construct something secure and safe enough for her to be warm.

Irene finally had a roof over her head five days later.

“Sleeped for half the day”
Irene reflected on her first night in her new 3.5 ft by 8 ft residence: “It felt so good, I was so relaxed, I think I must have slept half the day.”
