Adopt a Bum
Here at the Bumvertising™ Agency, we are always trying to figure out how to innovate, and provide additional benefit for our valuable advertising bums. We think of these as 'tips' for the hardest working of our contractors.
Now you can donate money towards specific items that will be delivered to one of our Bumvertising™ beggars. Homeless shelters and aid organizations deliver basic necessities such as canned chick peas, evaporated milk, used clothing, and toiletries, but Bumvertising would like to deliver more luxurious items that might serve to uplift morale, social position, and self confidence. Send us some money and let us know what you want us to spend it on. We'll buy your gifts and deliver them to a well deserving bum. Once enough money is collected to purchase a particular item, we will make the purchase, make the delivery, then post a picture of the vagrant receiving his new gift.
100% of all money received is spent on the bums (minus the Paypal fees). We keep none of it for administrative costs. If your donation isn't enough to cover the purchase price of your item, we'll wait until more has been collected to buy it. Here are some items we're saving up for. Contribute to these suggestions or put your donation toward something else. As long as the gift is not malicious or insulting, we will make the delivery for you, and post the picture for everyone to see.

Premium Wrist Watch
For a sign-holding bum, timing is everything. You need to be at the right off ramp at the right time to maximize begging revenue. This also helps keeps order, with less offenses (often violent) to the "30 minute rule".

Dress Shoes
For a bum, a good pair of shoes is as important as shelter. We'll pick up a fine pair of shiney black wingtips from a nice department store. You can't apply to a new job with a used pair of sneakers.
Estimated cost: $120.00
Amount raised: $20.00
