Bring homeless persons to central location(s)
Don't hold event indoors, instead in parking lot, park, bus station,
etc.
Use donated food if possible, restaurants/caterers with capacity to do
outdoor "barbecues"
Consider use of outdoor hot dog stand
Prepackaged food another option (sandwiches, bottled beverages)
Coats, socks, blankets, tooth brushes, shampoo, etc. are also good
enticements
Free toys from Toys for Tots programs for kids in homeless families
Avoid obvious law enforcement presence
