As you know, the coronavirus pandemic is wreaking havoc on the economy, and none are hit harder than local restaurants, including the cooks and chefs.
Many of them have resorted to selling food in their homes and apartments to make a living. These people need our support more than ever during this difficult time.
These People Are Helping Others In Atlanta
đ @tylerperry paid it forward and purchased groceries for nearly 3,000 senior shoppers today at Kroger stores across Atlanta. You can see how much this means by the look on their faces. Thank you, Tyler, for your generosity! đ pic.twitter.com/L57nfNqm3g

Movie mogul Tyler Perry has been putting his money where his mouth is during this coronavirus pandemic.
The Atlanta filmmaker has been doing good deeds of late in a big way. Days ago, Perry left a huge tip at one of his favorite restaurants in Atlanta, brightening the day of the staff.
Recently, he went to an Atlanta restaurant to pickup a takeout order, and left a $500 tip for each of the restaurant’s 21 employees
Now he’s upped the ante again: He paid for all the groceries during Seniors Hour at 44 supermarket locations in Atlanta. He repeated the good deed in his hometown of New Orleans. Way to go, Tyler!
