Answer:

Hoover also relied on charities to help the needy and end the crisis. Also he used the Laissez Faire or "hands off" government; business will take care of themselves and the government will not interfere.He also encouraged other wealthy individuals to donate their money, Page 2 clothing, or food to charity. Volunteer organizations, such as Volunteers of America, provided relief to millions of Americans during the Depression.

The Hoover administration didn’t care about the Great Depression. He did not care so much that when he ran for re-election, homeless camps where called hover camps.
