I don't give money. If someone says they're hungry, I take them inside and buy them a meal. Most people begging for money want it for alcohol or drugs. They are surprised when I get them what they claim they want.

For people who really need help, I also mostly buy what they need. There was a woman who was in bad health with cancer and raising a lot of kids. My wife and I bought them a bag of groceries and bought clothes and toys for all the kids, as Christmas was coming.
