I admire the work of Willie Fairley who is the owner of Willie Ray's Q Shack which is located in Cedar Rapids Iowa that is recovering from the effects of severe windstorm known as a derecho that did a lot of damage to his city.
Fairley is using his passion for grilling food that ranges from hot dogs to chicken by giving away the meals to the victims of the derecho for free as a way to assist them during this rough period of time,
His service of giving away free meals to the storm victims has gained Fairley a heroic image in Cedar Rapids since he believes in serving his community over profits.
Thanks to his acts of kindness, donations are coming in to keep his restaurant up and running.

I hope so as well since a business owner who is a giver gains more customers.

What a laudable act Failey has done to Derecho victims over his business earnings.

When hotel owners serve free food to people in need inspite of losses their contribution is recognised and help starts pouring in .

That was a wonderful thing to do. I'm glad to hear he's getting donations to keep his restaurant going. Have a great Friday.
