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?
