Cupertino, CA – January 6, 2026 – Claudio Bono, a prominent hospitality executive, Cupertino Commissioner, President of the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce 2026, and dedicated advocate, celebrates a remarkable achievement: his book, The Homelessness Fix: How to Save the World While Everyone Else Argues About It, has claimed the #1 bestseller spot on Amazon just four months after release. Blending personal memoir, rigorous research, and a proven scalable plan, the book is striking a powerful chord with readers desperate for real solutions to one of America’s most pressing crises. Released in mid-August 2025, The Homelessness Fix presents a groundbreaking strategy that taps untapped resources, including an estimated $25 billion in expiring loyalty points from the travel industry alongside unified welcome centers and strategic nonprofit partnerships to deliver immediate housing and comprehensive support. Drawing on Bono’s 35 years of expertise in hotel logistics, the book lays out a clear three-year roadmap to eradicate homelessness, bypassing endless political gridlock and bureaucratic delays. The book’s practical, results-driven insights have rocketed to the top of Amazon’s Kindle charts in poverty, social issues, and public policy categories, signaling a nationwide hunger for actionable reform. Key elements of Bono’s transformative plan include:
Resource Mobilization: Redeeming billions in expired loyalty points from airlines, hotels, and credit card companies to fund emergency shelters and transitional housing at virtually no additional taxpayer cost.
Streamlined Infrastructure: Creating centralized welcome centers that seamlessly coordinate services across nonprofits, government agencies, and the private sector for rapid, efficient aid delivery.
Scalable Implementation: A proven, step-by-step framework easily adaptable to cities across the country, prioritizing logistics and results over ideology to house people quickly and sustainably.
Economic Impact: Delivering billions in long-term savings on healthcare, law enforcement, and social services while generating new city revenues through transient occupancy taxes (TOT).
Bono shared his excitement about the book’s success while pointing to a striking contrast in political engagement: “I’m thrilled that The Homelessness Fix has hit #1 on Amazon it proves Americans are ready for solutions that actually work,” said Bono. “What’s astonishing (and thrilling) is that Republicans at local, state, and national levels have proactively reached out to explore implementation. Yet, despite three years of relentless outreach social media tags, letters, emails, and direct calls to the governor’s office no one from Governor Gavin Newsom’s team has responded, nor have any candidates running for Governor.
California remains the epicenter of this crisis; this plan could transform it, but the silence from state leadership is deeply disappointing. “The comprehensive plan outlined in the book has been formally submitted to the White House for review, with Bono urging federal leaders to embrace its potential for nationwide impact. Early readers and reviewers hail it as a “powerful, actionable, and immediately feasible” blueprint that rises above partisan division. The Homelessness Fix is available now on Amazon in paperback, hard copy, and Kindle editions. For interviews, review copies, or more information, contact Claudio Bono at [email protected].
