Blog 1, Post 5 Poverty in the City of Seattle

Our presentation will be on Seattle, Washington we will do a power point presentation showing statistics and facts as we are able to provide them accordingly.   Our goal is to show the class and instructor the profile of hunger and homelessness in Seattle.   The presentation will have a group of 4 speakers discussing various topics about Seattle and one will present an overview of the Mayor's Report in detail about the population and what the city of Seattle is doing to help those in need.   We presented a power point presentation and were able to discuss the facts and statistics as allowed, overall I feel the presentation was excellent.
