I used to have to do a certain amount of community service per quarter fr high school ROTC. I usually got my house helping at a nearby veteran's home. Ended up making a few friends with some old dudes, and now I go down there semi regularly to play cards with em. There's a homeless older guy who hangs around there, has a few friends. Looks through the garbage a lot for food, kinda sad. Couple weeks ago when I saw him coming, I tossed a 20 in the trash for him to find. I could tell by the fact that he'd never asked any of his friends there for money or food that he wasn't the type to like relying on charity, so I figured it'd be better to leave it there for him to find rather than just offering him the money. Saw him later that day in the cafeteria with an actual hot meal, so he must have found it.
