I could venture a guess that many very religious people are on the conservative side of the spectrum, and their religion compels them to help others. Though in most cases, "helping others" means "attempting to convert them to your religion." And many times you can just replace "religion" with "cult" and it comes out about the same (e.g. Scientology has outreach programs, though I think that's more for converting survivors of disasters than helping the homeless).
