Formerly the owner of a decorating company, Huang Zi-yun (黃紫雲) became homeless after people maliciously failed to pay their debts. At an “Experience Homeless Life” activity, he met Liu Yi-long (劉一龍), assistant professor at Fu Jen Catholic University’s Department of Social Work. Liu Yi-long found Huang Zi-yun to have an earnest and responsible attitude and after several meetings set his mind on helping him raise financial resources to set up a business.

Liu Yi-long said that when he took part in the “Experience Homeless Life” activity as an observer, he found Huang Zi-yun to be different from other homeless people. Concerned about students’ exposure to cold during their overnight stay in the park, Huang Zi-yun not only caringly gathered cardboard boxes and newspapers to keep them warm, he also stayed awake the whole night in order to ensure the students’ safety. “When I got home I started thinking about how to help Huang Zi-yun,” Liu Yi-long said laughingly.

After a long period of communication and observation, Liu Yi-long began to understand the plight of Huang Zi-yun, and proposed to assist him. He decided that selling coffee via a mobile coffee cart would not only help Huang Zi-yun increase his financial resources, but also bring him much-needed human interaction and a sense of accomplishment. An enthusiastic response following proposing the idea on an online fund-raising platform gave birth to “Life Walker Coffee”, helping Huang turn the page to a new and happier chapter of his life.

路行者咖啡 黃紫雲逆轉人生

黃紫雲曾是裝潢公司的老闆,被惡意倒債後成為街友、流浪街頭,在一次「流浪生活體驗營」的活動中,他認識了輔仁大學社會工作學系助理教授劉一龍,劉一龍發現黃紫雲態度認真負責,在多次溝通下決定幫助他創業自立,獲取更多經濟資源。

劉一龍說,當初參與體驗營時他擔任觀察員,他發現黃紫雲跟其他的街友不同,帶著學生在公園體驗街友夜宿時,不但擔心學生受寒而替他們找紙箱、報紙保暖,整晚更是為了學生安全守夜未睡。「回家就開始構思該怎麼做,如何幫助黃大哥。」劉一龍笑說。

經過多次溝通與觀察後,看見黃紫雲的困境,劉一龍決定提案協助他,他決定透過移動咖啡車販售咖啡,增加黃紫雲的經濟財源,也可以為他帶來人際互動及成就感。計畫在募資平台上提出之後,得到網友熱烈的迴響,讓「路行者咖啡」順利營運,也幫助黃紫雲開始了新人生。
