When an employee at Goodwills store in Naples, Fla., started handing out freelance discounts to the shops poorest customers, Goodwill not only fired the young man, the company called the cops and now has him up on felony theft charges.
"I wasn't actually stealing, 19-year-old Andrew Anderson told TV station WBBH. Goodwill is a giving and helping company, so I took it upon to myself to be giving and helping because I feel people deserve it.
Anderson worked behind the counter at the Naples Goodwill outlet. He would often see the communitys poorest people come into the store, looking to buy clothes but with only a few bucks to their name.

Most second-hand clothes and other items sold by Goodwill were donated to the company for free.
