A homeless man in Canada, has turned down a sizable pile of donations from a crowdfunding page after attracting national praise for handing in $2,400 he found on the street.

Over $5,000 has been raised for the man, who wishes to remain anonymous.

After a lengthy search for the man, who has no fixed address or mobile phone number, Alex Bérubé, a constable from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) found him and informed him of the good news.

The man asked that the money be given to several different food bank charities instead. All he wanted was a job, which I’m sure any number of places will be more than happy to give him. What an amazing person!
