Rich people get a bad rap....class envy. Truth is they pay 40% of all taxes in this country along with providing employment and giving to charity. Keep listening to Biden diving our country by demonizing the rich to raises taxes more

No one should ever have to go hungry. Years ago 3 of my children and I went to bed hungry and got up for work and school hungry as well and that struggle went on for a year or two. Thank you Collin.. Bless you.♥️

[@le_th_]

I'm so sorry you all had to experience that. I've heard hunger pangs are terrible to endure, and I know there are many, many people out there experiencing this daily. I'm glad you all made it through, and I hope your kids are doing well today.

Personal responsibility, the former slogan of our most disgraced political party, takes hold in…Berkeley? Well, that is certainly a new twist. A round of applause, sir…

It is so wonderful to know that in this era of crime and hate in the Bay area, there are good people who are compassionate and caring. May he be ever blessed.

[@karlad4082]

I love this beautiful man. He should sell coupons in his restaurant that customers can purchase from him to give away to those who they think may need a meal. I don’t like giving money away because I don’t know how they’ll use the money, but coupons for food is a different story 😊👍

[@martina5296]

What a positive and good story. More stories like this should have more focus on the good things people do in the Bay Area. People like to hear about good people doing simple things good things in communities. Because, seeing that small things that do good has an impact to have positive change. Even kids doing good. Too many negative stories about rude, violent, intolerant people.

If I ate there, I’d give him 100$. Good man doing God’s work. My concern are entitled degenerates like California’s protected criminals, illegals, junkies and violent crazies taking advantage of his incredible kindness or hurting him. He needs to be protected. Also while commendable, he’’ll likely be out of business in a year, he can’t be making much profit to pay for overhead, ingredients, salaries etc
