My son encountered someone in the street some weeks ago who approached him for money because, “I haven’t eaten anything for two days.” My son immeditaely offered to take him to a kosher deli nearby and get him a couple of sandwiches (or whatever he wanted) and some juice or soda. He also offered to take him to a grocery to get some basic supplies (bread, milk, peanut butter, cans of tuna, tissues) The man refused, said he only wanted the money. My son told him he does not carry cash around, but if he changed his mind and really was hungry, he would be happy to pay for the food by card. The man walked off in a huff.
