Q&A session with Homeless Voice vendor and resident Brenda Lampon about her time vending, being on the streets during the pandemic, and her love of reading.<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Interview by Miranda Schumes<\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

HV: Where are you from?<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: I was born in New York and I grew up in Long Beach, Long Island. I came down to Florida about 15 years ago.<\/p>\n

HV: Tell me about your experience when you first arrived in Florida.<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: When I first came down to Florida, I went to labor halls to find work. You just go to different offices to find work. The labor halls gave us a ticket, picked us up, took us to a place to work, we worked, then they took us back and paid us. You go to different offices to find work. I would still sleep outside, but I just kept working and would save money. Then when I had enough I would rent a room at a hotel. I did that for about five years.<\/span><\/p>\n

HV: What did you do when you stopped seeking work at labor halls?<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: <\/span>At that point, I went to live in the COSAC Foundation shelter in Hollywood. I went there, stayed in the shelter and started collecting donations for them, while also vending the newspaper. I did that six days a week. I would go out on the median in the road and would put money in my bucket. I didn\u2019t really enjoy vending, but I liked meeting the people giving the donations. <\/span>Some people would even come back and give me food or water. <\/span><\/p>\n

All of the people made me happy because they\u2019d give me the time of day. They\u2019d talk about themselves, their lives, and they gave me someone to talk to. I miss the people. I would talk to people so they\u2019d know what the COSAC Foundation was doing and what we were collecting donations for. I also miss the people at the shelter. Most of us got along and we would watch movies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

HV: Why did you leave the Hollywood based COSAC Foundation shelter?
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: Eventually, my boyfriend and I had enough, and then we went to Plantation [and lived on the streets]. Vending is hard work. It\u2019s hot and it\u2019s an all day affair. I panhandled [in Plantation] too and some people recognized me from my time in Hollywood. Eventually my boyfriend died of lung cancer and I was on my own. He passed away about three years ago and I stayed in Plantation on my own before moving to the Veterans Inn [in Lake City, Florida about two months ago]. <\/span><\/p>\n

HV: Tell me about living on the streets.<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: There\u2019s no rules on the streets. First of all, I\u2019m not a scaredy cat. I don\u2019t need to fight. I know a lot of people including cops. I could survive, no problem. Nobody needed to fight me because I never did anything to anyone. Pretty much everyone knew me. People would give [food] to me or they\u2019d give me money and I\u2019d go buy some.<\/span><\/p>\n

[As far as a tent and shelter], you just find stuff and you bring it together. I had to make sure I was covered in the rain and with the wind. Then [during hurricanes], I stayed in places where there was enough blockage.<\/span><\/p>\n

[On the streets], if you don\u2019t have a plan people take advantage of you, but I have no problem with that. And if you don\u2019t have a brain, people will take advantage of you. First of all, I don\u2019t do drugs. The ones outside, a lot of them do drugs. They pass out, they get ripped off, people will steal their stuff, they don\u2019t pay off their bills. And I don\u2019t do drugs. I just say, \u201cTo each his own,\u201d but don\u2019t bring it my way. I don\u2019t do that.<\/span><\/p>\n

[During COVID], people would give me masks, and they would talk to me for 5 to 10 minutes. They would wear a mask too. People know me, that’s why there was no problem.<\/span><\/p>\n

A lot of the time, I would sit under a tree in my chair and I would read or listen to my radio. I like to read. I keep to myself, [but I also] talk to everybody. I [liked always] seeing ducks, iguanas, you name it. Birds \u2014 I liked to feed them. When I was on the streets I was on my own. People around you sleeping and leaving their crap brings too much attention, and then you get kicked out or robbed. I found that living on my own was easier and I never get lonely.<\/span><\/p>\n

HV: How long were you living on the streets prior to going to the Veterans Inn in Lake City, Florida?<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: Five years. I was at the COSAC Foundation before that for about two years.<\/p>\n

HV: How did you end up at the Veterans Inn?<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: I know Sean [Cononie, the founder of the COSAC Foundation] and he was in Plantation. He gave me a mask and all that. He would check on me, and he convinced me to come [to the Veterans Inn], and they brought me here. I got a bed, a shower, food. I haven\u2019t been here that long, but it\u2019s different. I share a room with someone. I know most of the people here from [the] Hollywood [COSAC location].<\/span><\/p>\n

HV: Do you have any hobbies?
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: The ones that I had I can\u2019t do now. I liked swimming, going to the beach. Now, I\u2019m far away from the beach and even if I was close, you can\u2019t take a wheelchair on the beach. I would go to the beach in Plantation. I would sleep there and swim every morning and every night. My boyfriend and I lived there together. We used to go to the beach, walk, go to the bars, listen to music, play cards together. He\u2019s in a better place now. He\u2019s not in pain, so life goes on. He and I were together for three years. Each year I do my own personal thing around the time of his passing to remember him.<\/span><\/p>\n

[Now], I read every day. I read thrillers, dramas, spy, John Christian, Stephen King \u2014 all those guys. I just get into it and tune out everything around me.\u00a0 I read whatever comes my way, but I\u2019m not into love stories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

HV: You mentioned that you\u2019re in a wheelchair now. Do you want to discuss some of the struggles that come with that?<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: My legs just gave out. Of course, it\u2019s a new challenge. I\u2019m used to walking. Even here [at the Veterans Inn], they\u2019ve been helping me. I hold onto bars and do exercise or I work with a walker. It\u2019s been working. They help me out everyday.<\/span><\/p>\n

HV: What would you say to people who are hesitant about donating to the COSAC Foundation?
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n

Lampon: We are not your regular Joes. You give if you want to, but you\u2019d be giving to a good cause. It gives us a place to sleep, a place to eat, to shower. It gives us things that people take for granted.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
