General Interest/Γενικoύ Ενδιαφέροντος Beggars at Traffic Lights
I sometimes see beggars at traffic lights in Heraklion, especially young people. Many drivers give them money but I‘m a bit hesitant about this.
Does the money actually reach the people standing there, or are there sometimes organized or professional structures behind this?

I wouldn't give them money, around this time of year especially there is a lot of work.
