You might see the vendors on corners downtown. they sell the papers for $1. the vendor is a homeless person and gets to keep the money. And there is a cupon for $1 off any sandwich at spinelli's deli, so you basically are breaking even.
I never give money to people on the street, but yesterday I bought a paper for the first time. I really liked it. and it's a neat little paper about homeless awareness and stuff.
also, I've noticed a lot less bums lately, i haven't been asked for change in quite a while (couple months)
I guess the paper is located at 132 s 3rd st
for now I recommend it, i think it is a great alternative to people begging. and they aren't all up in your face giving you some sob story, it's a no pressure kind of deal. i think it makes for nicer streets.
