In all seriousness, when people have praised my wife and me for taking in friends of our children who have been kicked out of their own homes, or housing a family for a few months while they got their lives back in order, I always thought, "What's so special about what we are doing?  It's not like it's a terribly difficult thing." 
I think we only neglect the poor and needy "around" us when we don't allow them to be "among" or "of" us.
