"Give,and it will be given to you.
Good measure,pressed down,shaken together,running over,will be put into your lap.
For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you."
Luke 6:38 

My name is Kelly, I wanted to home in on what the problem is and why there's so many homeless today. I know everybody's story is different on why they ended up homeless on the street, most politicians blame it on lack of affordable housing but that's not the majority of case today, it's because of drug addiction, mainly the drug called fentanyl. 
Simply put, if you're on drugs you can't maintain employment and you therefore can't maintain responsibilities such as paying for your housing and basic daily needs.
What I'm trying to address here is HELPING those in a real way. Afterall that's what we want to do right? 
So, the next time you see a homeless person asking for a handout and you give that person money out of the kindness of your heart hoping it might help just a little, great! but what may really happens is that they will buy more drugs with the money that you gave them, sad but true.
You officially became an ENABLER and just put another "nail in the coffin" for them. it is more hurting than helping them.
You need to see things logically not through rose colored glasses, like when you see someone asking for food on a freeway off ramp, wouldn't it make more sense to be standing next to a food establishment if they're hungry?  but most really only want money to buy they're drugs, also being on drugs prevents many of them from staying in shelters which don.t allow drug use or being under the influence of drugs. 
  I f you truly wish to help someone and know you really are helping them then this is where you can donate to actually make sure your Handout is used for the right reason, not drugs which isn't helping the situation. So, give today to Honest Handouts so we can give it to those who need it.
Sincerely, Kelly
