These places are really great and doing a great deed for human cause. In our lives, we come across such situations when we totally have no place to go, nothing to eat and then we realize what do these places means. In such times, these things will have more value than a castle and Fortune Cookies These places are true friends of ours as it justifies the quote, friend in need is friend indeed.
