The people who work with the homeless community advise not to give money....too many waste on alcohol or drugs. Instead advise where help is available. If you want to help immediately, buy some $5.00 gift certificates to Mac or other resturant..

probably everyday but i would want to sit down and talk with them and ask them how they became homeless I would want to know the person i was giving money too all the time...I know it sounds wierd but how many people walk by and say nothing and don't even make eye contact thats gotta be hurtful.I also feel they are the reason they are homeless get a job that kind of thing but we all make huge mistakes in this life and I think they deserve a break they just made worse decisions than us.

I would give him change everyday. Since you know you will be giving it to him everyday don't give him as much as you would if it was the first time. It's better to distribute the money throughout the days so he can feel good about getting some everyday. Your giving the same amount of money just spread out over the days

i wouldn't give them change cuz, most go out and by liquor and drugs with that money that they do save up, i would take them to a near by fast food place, or bring them back something, or if i' am on the run then i give them like 2 bux, i always have icky homeless guys coming up to me, especially when i am heading up to the beach and i stop to get gas.... i am weirded out... but i chose to be a nice person... and do a good deed.

Probably one or two times if I have enough change (which I rarely do), and then I'd resort to breath mints, which I almost always carry in my bag. (I actually have given Tic-Tacs to homeless people before. They seem to appreciate it.)

I would give him the want adds there are plenty of jobs around if he wanted to work but I guess being a perisite is work also.
