Doesn't necessarily mean its not legit. I hope they are ok -was a bit sceptical but made a small donation.

Nothing I can find online. I suggest asking what the charity is doing. Then asking their website address; and for a mailing address and phone number so you can make a donation or set up a standing order if you like their work.

Hi

I just had a young guy call with a tin collecting for Kid's Out. I was suspicious, but the charity seems legit.

Hi Alan, I was told that it was to support young homeless. I didn't donate as I prefer to give direct to a charity as you suggest and also I don't like opening the door at night when its dark and making myself vulnerable.
