100-year-old resident of Burlington, Vermont, Anthony Pomerli organized a festive pre-Christmas party for the city's residents.
The holiday, where about 450 people had fun and enjoyed free food, cost him $ 13,000, writes Time.
A man organizes such events every year for the last 37 years. He admitted that he did not mind spending his money to arrange a holiday for people who were less fortunate in life than to him. This idea was inspired by his own difficult childhood.
The first party 37 years ago Pomerli helped organize the current Senator Bernie Sanders, who at that time was the mayor of Burlington.
According to the estimates of the 100-year-old philanthropist, over 37 years of his party helped to feed about 40,000 needy children and adults.
