About this video

Arnold Abbott was a 90-year-old World War Two veteran who dedicated over 20 years of his life to feeding the homeless in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Despite his age and the risks involved, he continued serving meals to those in need every week.

In 2014, the city passed a law that made it illegal to distribute food to the homeless in public without a permit. Abbott refused to stop his weekly feedings and was arrested by police while helping people at the beach. He told reporters that he was not afraid of being arrested and that the homeless needed help. His actions sparked national attention and outrage, raising questions about compassion, human dignity, and how society treats its most vulnerable citizens.

Abbott’s story is a powerful reminder of selflessness and courage. He continued to fight for the rights of the homeless until his passing, leaving a lasting impact on his community.
