A bar and restaurant owned by the family of Argentinian and Barcelona superstar, Lionel Messi has been giving out free food and drink to the homeless in his home town of Rosario.
Argentina is currently having a bad weather as a result causing economic crisis which has led lots of people sleeping on the streets.
The restaurant named VIP, is said to keep this up for two weeks until the situation improves.
Ariel Almada, the restaurant manager said:
“We’ve been giving coffee, soft drinks and even some wine to some.
“Many people came and were very respectful.
“We’re going to keep this up for 15 days, every night between 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM.”
Messi through his Leo Messi foundation in February, donated €200,000 to help fund a water project in conjunction with UNICEF in Kenya.
Following reports, the restaurant also plans to collect some warm clothes to give those who require them.
