I live in an area where most of the unhoused people in my city stay.

It has started getting insanely hot. People are going to die.

If I load up my little buggy with an ice chest and water bottles, what would be the best way to get people water?

I’ve thought it might be good to wear some kind of church’s shirt or something - I know that police tend to fuck with people who help the homeless, especially in my area.

I’m too broke to give out sunscreen or other sundries but are there other things I should carry with me too?

I get if the answer is “just do it” - just looking for advice if other people have done this.

    if you don’t give them money that’s because you don’t see them as full human beings capable of making the best choice for themselves given the circumstances

        Your post was very helpful and insightful, thanks for that. I struggle with the feeling of wanting to help and not knowing what to do (other than helping larger orgs). Ignore the other person.
