Gift Cards For The Homeless?

I just had to include this idea.

Personally, when I give money to the homeless I leave it up to God to worry how the money is spent.

However, I also don't want to support unhealthy habits, such as drugs.

I read a great idea! Instead of giving cash in hopes to provide food for the homeless, you can purchase gift cards for a restaurant nearby.

Then you give those gift cards away.

If you want to give a homeless person coffee to warm them - give a Starbucks card.

If you want to give a homeless person a meal - give them a McDonald's gift card.

I just thought that was a good alternative.
