Ten years ago, Alabama resident Hody Childress stopped by the local drug store to chat with the pharmacist. He was shocked when she told him many of his neighbors struggled to pay for their medications, due to a lack of insurance and rising prescription costs. 

❤️ Help your neighbor... For the next decade, Hody dropped a $100 bill off at the pharmacy on the first of each month. He gave thousands away over the years.

• “Do not tell a soul that money came from me,” the pharmacy owner remembered Hody saying. “If they ask, just tell them it’s a blessing from the Lord."
• In fact, no one knew of Hody's generosity until just before his passing last month, when he told his daughter what he had done

💸 Keep the giving going: Members of Hody's small Alabama town are keeping the tradition alive by donating money each month to the same pharmacy in honor of Hody's good deed.
