    In the heart of Brooklyn, bustling with people from all walks of life, lived a five-year-old Chasidic boy named Yanky. Yanky had a special love for giving charity. He believed that even the smallest act of kindness could make a big difference.

    Every day, Yanky would save a portion of his pocket money to give to the less fortunate. His parents admired his kind heart and always encouraged him to keep doing good.

    One day, Yanky was on his way to school when he noticed an old, homeless man sitting on the sidewalk. The man looked weak and frail. Yanky felt a deep urge to help him.

    Yanky ran to the nearest store and used his saved money to buy some food and water for the old man. He then rushed back and handed them to him. The old man was grateful and thanked Yanky.

    The next day, Yanky saw the old man again. He looked weaker than before. Yanky decided to tell his parents about the old man. They agreed to help and called a doctor to check on him.

    The doctor found out that the old man was severely dehydrated and malnourished. He was immediately taken to the hospital for proper care and treatment. Yanky and his parents were relieved.

    While the old man was recovering in the hospital, Yanky visited him every day after school. He would bring him fresh fruits and read him stories. Their bond grew stronger with each passing day.

    After a few weeks, the old man was healthy enough to be discharged from the hospital. Yanky and his parents invited him to stay with them until he could find a place of his own.

    Time passed, and the old man regained his strength. He started to help around the house and even taught Yanky how to play chess. They spent many afternoons playing together.

    Eventually, the old man saved enough money to rent a small apartment. It was a bittersweet moment for Yanky. He was happy for the old man but also sad to see him leave.

    On the day the old man was leaving, he gave Yanky a small box. Inside the box was a silver chess piece. He told Yanky that it was a token of his gratitude.
