I would imagine most of them can't, it amounts to trying to bail out the ocean, one bucket at a time. In less hyperbolic terms, many of these programs are attempting to tackle intractable societal problems when - even for ones that are relatively well-funded - the cost of organizational overhead, limited ability to cause lasting impact outside of their specific area of influence, etc., reduce what they do to a lot of good intentions and few meaningful results. Depending on the "clientele," it amounts to attempting to provide assistance to people who really can't or don't want to be helped (hard drugs and the chronic homeless, for example).
