8-Year Old Taji Johnson Provides Tents For the Homeless in South Carolina
Taji Johnson is helping homeless people in his city of Trenton, South Carolina providing them tents for shelter.
“I just kept thinking about people who don’t have homes,” Taji told WJBF.
The 8-year-old started Taji’s Tents last January to help fund the purchase tents for the homeless. Taji mother says that in just 10 days, they were able to garner $2,700 in donations and were able to buy 34 tents at first.
“He did not like the fact that Amazon charged him tax because he felt like those were extra tents he could have purchased,” his mom, Chemikia Johnson said.
Taji personally went to Columbia with his family to give out the tents. They are also set to go to Greenville, Augusta, Macon, and Charleston next.
“He’s so happy to be able to provide shelter to homeless people. He really is,” his mother said. Taji, who aspires to be president one day, doesn’t plan to stop giving out tents.
“I asked him if this was for the long run or if this was something he wanted to do,” said his mother. “He said he’s doing it forever. He’s going to give as many homeless people shelter as he can.”
