If you’re like me, when homeless people ask for money, you just can’t. Here’s a much better idea.

I’ll admit it: I’ve walked past homeless people without giving them anything.

Especially in big cities, where requests for help come at you from all angles, multiple times a day. But what if you could know for certain that you could actually help homeless people get a leg up in life?

An innovative website and program started in San Francisco aims to do just that. And for those who are on the go and just want to send them $5 or whatever, it allows for that too. Best of all, you know your dollars are going to help these folks get things they need. Win/win, right?
