We used to feed the homeless for as long as we could afford to do so, we were our own non-profit, so feeding the homeless came out of pocket. In any regard, we would go out at night when they would be sleeping on the concrete in downtown Orlando (Florida), and downtown Kissimmee, some choose to be homeless, some don't even want to be homeless, they'll tell you their story with tears on their eyes. You can't just decide to judge whether a homeless man is there because they chose to be without actually talking to them. You really can't. We helped some of them find homes, others find their way back home. The homeless people are like your family, they need to be taken care of too, but not everyone is willing to put their heart out for someone else.

Everywhere I go, if I see a homeless person asking for money I offer them any food I have in my car. You don't have to give them money, food is valuable as well. If they don't want it, it's their loss.
