While its very, very sad there are homeless people in America, we have a ton of programs and services to help them. (At least in the area I live in...)
While there might be people out there that really need the money, there are plenty that are con artists just out to scam you. I say donate to the homeless shelters and other programs NoahsMommy is right.
