I usually wouldn’t post something like this on the mind blow section but this mans story simply blew my mind and I thought i’d share it with you guys.

Over 12 years ago a humble old man named Dobri Dobrev decided to give up what he had, to do what he believed was right. Although this man lost his hearing in World War 2 he began to walk 10 kilometers from his village to a city named Sofia. At Sofia he would spend his whole day begging for money, & helping out city churches.

However it was only recently discovered that in those 12 years he had been living off the 80 Euros ($104.35 US Dollars) that he gets a month from his retirement and the food that people gave him. Every penny that he collected from the long walks to Sofia was donated towards restorations of decaying Bulgarian monasteries and utility bills for orphans and churches. In fact he is the biggest financial contributor since he donated approximately 20,000 Euros ($26,088 US Dollars). People couldn’t believe a poor 98-year-old man was willing to give up all the money he had collected over the years just to help out the people in need. Dobri Dobrev proves to us that even one person can make a difference it doesn’t matter what your situation is.
