The Ballard News-Tribune has posted a story about Tim who told the paper the community's donations were a "miracle that has saved his life."

On any given day in Ballard, Tim Allen can be seen cleaning the sidewalks along N,W. Market Street in the company of his two Jack Russell Terriers, Rico and Zeta. Carrying a white five-gallon bucket for donations as he works a broom vigorously down the street from 15th Avenue all the way to 24th Ave...

Thanks everyone for helping Tim! Here's an update on him...

Over the holidays, the Seattle community raised nearly $2,500 along with other offers to help Tim, a newly-homeless man in Ballard. It was Care Movement’s first fundraiser, and we wanted to update you on how Tim is doing.

Woodinville teacher and Phinney Ridge resident Prudence Hockley was murdered on Christmas Eve, and now there's a fund to help her surviving daughters.

Wow, you've raised nearly $2,500 for Tim, the newly-homeless man in Ballard who's been keeping the streets clean. Tim has written a heartfelt, humble letter thanking all of you for reaching out...

"I’m overwhelmed and in awe at what has happened," he writes.

You've raised $1,000 for Tim in the first 24 hours, with more on the way. Thank you for making our first fundraiser such a big success!

Unemployed and newly-homeless, Tim has become a bit of a fixture on Market St. in Ballard, sweeping the sidewalks for donations. “I have to be doing something,” he told My Ballard, explaining he’s not the kind of person who stands on the corner and begs for money.
