This week's "Chicken Soup For The Soul" moment brings you one very dedicated mom. Twenty years ago, Vivian Greaves walked down the alley to the Covenant House with no place else to turn for help. Recently she slept in that same alley - this time with over 100 other moms in support of homeless youth. As a teen, the Covenant House took her in, helped her get her GED and regain custody of her daughter. She was happy to give back and participate in the first all-female Sleep Out: Mothers Edition. The event was held in Houston, Texas and New York City, raising over $260,000!
