South African philanthropist, BI Phakathi tried to help some while in America but was faced with the unthinkable.
In a Facebook video he posted, BI Phakathi came across a man who was sleeping on a pavement just inform of McDonalds. He greeted the man and proceeded to go inside the fast food outlet and got two burgers and drinks.
He gave the food to the man, but he shockingly threw it in the bin. Phakathi was confused as to what was happening. When he asked the man why he threw the food, he didn't respond but instead, walked away.
A woman who was seemingly homeless came from across the road and Phakthi gave the food to her. The lady was very nice and grateful. She even thanked God for the food and Phakathi.
