Do you help the homeless or destitute?

I try. I regularly buy The Big Issue, which is a publication sold by the homeless and those not so well off. I've given a young woman a pair of boots in winter: I'd bought a new pair of Dr Marten boots and had my old pair under my arm, when I saw a young woman kind of hunched over at a bus stop. She was wearing flimsy plastic shoes, I gave her the boots and had a chat.
I give stuff to those in need but not cash.
I'd like to consider myself an altruistic type. Do you?
