Man Sells Pens On The Streets With His Daughter- One Guy Snaps This Pic Which Earned Him 200000 Dollars Through Crowd Funding
Meet Abdul Halim al-Attar, a Syrian refugee who was pictured selling pens in the streets of Beirut. After being displaced by the conflict, Abdul resorted to selling pens in order to provide food and shelter for his family. Recently, a stranger captured a photo of Abdul carrying his daughter, Reem. While carrying his daughter, he is also seen trying to convince others to buy pens so he could provide for another day. The photo has gone absolutely viral and touched the hearts of many all across the world.
The picture of Abdul is absolutely heart breaking and offers a true look into the crisis. For many people, this life is a reality.                        Â
Thanks to a Norweigian web developer named Gissur Simonarso, an online crowdfunding campaign was put together in order to raise money for Abdul and his family. The amount of support that came as a result was astonishing, as nearly $200,000 was raised. As a refugee with very little to his name, Abdul had big plans for the money.
