In Bend, Oregon there is a group of homeless men who ask for cans. It started out with one man who for a while pedaled up and down the main thoroughfare. We gave him our bags of cans once or twice a month.
Now several men have run this guy off and took over his spot, trashed the vacant lot.
We now give all our cans to the local shelter.
Given the drastic climate changes here on any given day makes you wonder why anyone would come here to be homeless.
