Why everyone deserves a home

When I wake up in the morning I wake up in a warm bed but some people can't experience that and it breaks my heart thinking about that. Some people can't even have hot food in the morning, afternoon and at night. A lot of people sleep on the streets every night and a lot of them go to sleep hungry. So I want them to go to their new home and have a nice warm bed and wake up in the morning feeling safe and wear warm clothes. They should have everything we have too because some people who are homeless die from starvation and hypothermia and dehydration. A lot of them probably want to play sports too and also go to a school to learn. It makes me so sad to think about it. A lot of them also deserve a hot bath or shower. Most of them also get really bad diseases from being outside, and it's really hard for them to get good food to make them big and strong. I love my room and I think people who are homeless would love rooms too, like I love sleeping in a warm bed and having a desk and a switch to game with with my friends. Everyday I wake up in a warm cozy bed; most people would love to warm wake up in a warm bed but homeless people can't cuz some of them live on the streets or in a tent.
