Replating: A good idea?

Here's a new concept I hadn't heard of before: Replating. It's a new movement in which people leave their leftover food atop a garbage can for homeless people to eat. If there's no recycling bin nearby, I often leave an empty bottle or can next to the garbage can to save the garbage pickers the effort of sifting through the receptacle to get it, but this is a whole other story. Is that even safe?

It makes sense to give your unwanted foods to those who are hungry but it seems like there should be a better way than leaving it on top of the garbage can. Still, if it works and it's keeping hungry people fed, I'm all for it. What do you think?
