Apparently the Salvation Army treats homeless people like shit?

Someone told me not to donate to them recently because of this, and I had to do some research because I mean, you can't trust someone on just their word. Apparently, according to multiple sources, the Salvation Army don't seem to care much about the people they are out there to help...

Anyone know more about this here? Also, anyone know any alternative charities for homeless people?

"Someone" is not a reliable source, maybe you could go and look at some of the services they offer and then make a judgement call on the salvation army

@nedkelly: You must've accidentally read through my question too quickly. As I wrote, "someone" told me, I believed they weren't a reliable source, so I checked out other, more believable sources.
