Something to realize about giving charity to homeless or impoverished people is that they will use that charity for the means that they see immediately necessary. My mother’s co-workers at the community college she works for pooled together some money and bought a car for this girl that had to take a bus 4 hours a day to go to school and couldn’t have a job because of it. The girl turned around and sold the car to purchase something (I can’t remember) for her family. She didn’t see that the car was an enabler for her to go to school and work and eventually strengthen her position in society. It was all about improving her situation in the present.
The rich live in the past, the middle class live in the future and the poor live in the present.
