This is how you be a good human.
A man in Florida went to his local Costco and when he left, it was with 100 generators, food, coffee, and other supplies, all of which he plans to send to the Bahamas in the wake of Hurricane Dorian. The generators, at $450 each, made up the bulk of his purchase, which amounted to $49,285.70.
“About 100 generators and a truck load of food and chainsaws are all going over by boat on Thursday to Marsh Harbour in The Bahamas. It’s terrible and I’m sure you’ve seen the photos,” the man. “It’s important that we help each other out. It’s better than just sitting there. You see a need and you fill it.”
According to CNN, the farmer is working with Errol Thurston, a boat captain whom he met over a decade ago in the Bahamas. The pair have been good friends ever since, and Thurston will pick up all the supplies the man bought and take them by boat to Abaco Island, one of the places hardest hit by Dorian. He’s also working with a network of other boat captains and trying to book commercial space to help transport supplies even faster.
