Denver motel owner goes above and beyond to shelter migrants for free

A Denver motel owner named Yong Prince is going the extra mile by providing free housing and meals to hundreds of migrants, mainly from Venezuela. The motel exclusively houses migrants, with rooms accommodating up to 25 people.

Selfless act amidst strained resources

This selfless act is helping individuals like Carlos and his wife, who are among the many guests sharing rooms with a dozen or more people. The influx of migrants is placing a strain on Denver's resources, with an estimated $180 million expected to be spent on migrants in 2024, leading to tough budget decisions for the city.

Commitment amidst challenges

Despite facing financial strain and personal loss, Prince, the 73-year-old daughter of North Korean immigrants, remains committed to her mission of aiding asylum seekers. Having spent over $300,000 of her own money since October, Prince plans to continue her efforts by seeking to lease another property, underscoring her dedication to helping migrants as long as possible.
