The whole purpose is to create a safe place for people to go which makes it an upsetting fact to know that many people feel shame needing to seek help from charity. The fact that reaching out for help could ever be considered shameful should in itself be considered shameful because it is never a bad act to ask for help. It makes it difficult to help find the people who need help even though it is a free cause. 

 

Unfortunately, there have been cases in separate areas where people have abused the charity of others by taking the food or clothes provided when they are not struggling to acquire them normally. Taking advantage of kindness only proves how selfish people can be - not clever or funny, just plain and simple selfishness that has negatively affected many other people.
