5. Sometimes the homeless shelter, or whatever local organization

serves the homeless can be helpful. The best of those organizations are working to get homeless into housing as well as jobs.

Were I rich enough, I'd endow my local homeless shelter with money to get furniture and household necessities (linens, dishes, cooking utensils, and so on) when someone is moved into a home or apartment. Among the bad things about being homeless is that you often wind up with absolutely nothing, and so when you do get a place to live, you're worse off than a young adult starting out in his first apartment, because mom and dad are not now around to give you dishes and the like.

And I understand how frustrating it is when you want to help and it seems impossible to get your help to the right place.
