The word got out and now Moosa has 40 kids stop by his workplace to collect food every single day. The children range from the ages of five to 16, and the selfless security guard never misses a day.
“There's a great need to feed children. If you could see all the children here, it would break your heart. They come from disadvantaged homes,” Moosa told the publication.
Some of Moosa’s colleagues have helped buy supplies needed to make the sandwiches for the 40 children. He buys at least five loaves of bread a day and never thinks twice about taking from his own mouth to feed these needy children.
“Receiving support from others motivates me to keep feeding the children and I’m happy that what I'm doing helps them. You should see how young these children are. Some of them go to bed hungry,” he says.
Moosa’s story touched the hearts of many and they celebrate his kindness
News 24 shared Moosa’s story on Facebook and many took to the comment to thank him for his selfless act of kindness. It takes a big heart to take from one’s self and give to others when you yourself do not have much.
