SFDC and others could make a big difference by hiring some homeless workers with a dedicated program. Half of the battle is for dignity and a decent resume. There are plenty of people with college degrees on the streets. Simple changes like not requiring a permanent address on job applications and payroll allowing cash cards as a deposit option (many payroll services do support this) are powerful enablers for people who need a hand up.
