Here is a good list.

My dad grew up in the Army, my grandmother was part of it until her death in mid 00s. I saw how they treated the people they were helping, if you looked too nice for help you got none (I fit here when I was on the verge of homelessness in the late 90s, despite volunteering with my grandmother in years previous), if you looked too bad you got no help.

Their soup kitchen gave small portions and always had leftovers. This was thrown away, not even given to the volunteers.
