Out of gas in Murray KY on way to AZ
A guy was at Walmart trying to raise money for gas and food in a class C so some others helped out and I topped off tank. Hoping he makes it to Phoenix.

I too am skeptical of these stories offered by people on street corners, and have witnessed ample evidence that the stories are generally BS.
Three thoughts:
Give because it makes you feel good.
If you have expectations about how the gift will be used, it is a business transaction and not a gift.
Money handed to people on street corners neglects the people who are bucking addiction, sleeping in shelters, and clawing their way back out. Those people are hoofing the streets looking for work, applying for housing, or patiently waiting their turn at the temporary labor company. Find an organization that really changes lives and consider supporting them.
