There are many places you can donate to and you may have never known that they help with homeless people.

There are many thrift stores that have back rooms that are for homeless only. There is one here in Tucson like that,St. Vincent de Paul's. Then again in Springfield Mo there is a place called The Cooks Kettle, at night they become a soup kitchen.

So look around your area, you would be surprised who is trying to help.
