Is it or is not the will of God to feed these people?

If you & I -- during the height of KKK's heyday (20s thru early 60s) -- had been around...
...& if the KKK had operated food pantries...
...then IF we had other means & mechanisms of directly & indirectly feeding the poor...on our own...
...then, no, it would not have been "God's will" to give cash to the KKK in the name of "feeding the poor" when we could DIRECTLY do so.

Or, if we had been around during the Nazi era...and if we had other means & mechanisms of directly & indirectly feeding the poor of that day...on our own...
...then, no, it would not have been "God's will" to give cash to the Nazi party in the name of "feeding the poor" when we could DIRECTLY do so.

In fact, it would have been...
...poor stewardship to give $ to either the KKK OR the Nazi party in the name of anything...
...plus simultaneously, would have been openly sanctioning evil...

The problem with your scenario is that "feeding the poor" isn't an "all" or "nothing" enterprise.

It's not that if we don't "feed the poor" thru orgs like the KKK or the Nazi party that it won't get done.

I'm a Mormon and my Heavenly Father through His Son Jesus Christ is revealing to me by the power of the Holy Ghost that, yes, this is His will.

Whenever the hungry come to us asking for food, no matter what we perceive their sins to be, we are to feed them.

Whenever the naked come to us asking for clothing we are to clothe them.

This is a commandment from Jesus Christ and shows true charity and love for all mankind.
