I remind them where the soup kitchens are... and the local shelter. However, in most cases I know them, so I tell them to go see their caseworkers. laugh

And the reason I say this, is because where I used to work. I would get asked all the damn time.grumble Once I even gave my leftover pizza to this dude that asked me for money and I watched him throw it in the trash. Ungrateful...grrrrrrrrgrumble

i give it to them if i have it because i will just blow it on junk anyway. and people say to me they will just buy booze with it and i always tell them i don't care what they do with it. just so they have more fun with it than i would have.

I usually don't like strangers coming up to me...especially if they ask me for money. I would think they would look down my wallet, see my money, grab it and run. But, I am kind so I may pull out a little something in exchange that someone would be kind to me if I was in that situation. Sad. glasses

I ask him what for....

And if it is food, buy him food... and also offer shelter, or referral to shelter.

Not to sound overly harsh, but most people are homeless because they choose to be.

It's not always that simple, but if they chose drugs and/or alcohol over all else, then that is what they choose.
