I really like the idea of Detroit Good Samaritan Allen Marshall who had saved $900 dollars so he could buy A knife sharpening tool.
However since he admires the work of the nurses who work their tails off at the Detroit Medical Center, he decided to ease the burden of paying for gasoline to be pumped into their autos by paying his life savings to the cashiers who work at the Exxon gasoline station.
Allen did his part to get the word out by standing of the sidewalk next to the gasoline station by showing a sign that read "Free Gas For Nurses."
The sale went on for two days which was Tuesday and Wednesday when about 50 to 80 nurses took advantage of his offer.
The nurses really appreciated the kind act of generosity from Allen's part. When the free gas project was finished, Allen waved another sign to the nursing motorists that read "Thank you for all you do"
Nurses are the unsung heroes in our world that appreciate any act of kindness from strangers.

I agree with you since nurses are the backbone of the medical industry who are not praised enough for doing a tough job.

It's said it's free and why there's a SALE. The gas isn't being SOLD. It's given free.

A noble deed. Also this man did something for nurses, who are at the forefront in medical care and epidemics, but somehow their role is often taken for granted.
And he provided with something that would immensely help them at this time.

Yes, I can understand. We have stopped ordering from Restaurants and are only cooking at home. This does makes one feel restricted but is essential for our well being.

Some nurses and doctors got infected as well in some cases.
Like in this one :
The Wockhardt Hospital in Mumbai Central seems to have emerged as the city’s biggest hotspot with the count of positive cases from the facility touchi
