I recently gave a brand new $3000 (usd) mattress and bed frame i wasn’t using to an old war veteran because i didn’t want to sell it. I made the phone call to a VFW and gave it to the guy who ran the bar. He was very grateful, he offered me 100$ but i told just give me $5 so i can grab a coffee on the ride home

I mean it, that was a cool thing to do and I'm glad you recognise it.

Thanks for helping out a person in need! I hope you're able to keep doing so, and that should the situation ever arise, someone will be able to do the same for you.
