HUMANITY : An unidentified man in the Saudi city of Hail, put a refrigerator outside his home in which his family, neighbors, & others, could put food and other leftovers. Then people who needed food would be spared the ‘shame’ of asking or begging in the street. This great act of charity mobilized the whole city & social media users continue to spread the word. They are calling on mosques, faith communities, & households to put out more fridges where people can give and get food.
Refrigerator was installed on the street by a generous Saudi man. People leave leftovers and food in it to feed less fortunate children to save them from the shame of begging for food. Random Acts of Kindness
