What would you do if a scraggly homeless person knocked on your door, and all he asked was for a sandwich, a bottle of water, a bath, and perhaps a beard trim?

I've actually skipped work just to help a homeless guy get his beard trimmed. Bought him pizza too. Kinda hard to get anywhere in life when you look like shit.
Be kind to the homeless, they just need a helping hand here and there.
What would you do?

I can certainly give them food and water, but sorry I’m not trusting enough to let a stranger in my house.
I never said I let him in the house, I trimmed him up on the back porch.
Dude was old and all his belongings were in a single backpack, pretty sure that even if I had let him inside, he wouldn't have stolen anything.
Like seriously, where's he even gonna put stuff? Homeless people don't tend to have much space for extra stuff..
Good for you to help someone, genuinely. It's a little weird you asked a question and then once people answer you try to debate them.
Some homeless people steal. Not saying as a group they all do, but I don't know which category this stranger falls in. Once inside my house they know the layout and perhaps see things that would be of interest to come back later to steal. Of more concern is I don't know the mental health of this individual, and I'm less concerned about theft than my family's safety.
