Always know the source of the money and to who it is going to... this is such a big shame.

His story is probably one of the saddest.

All he did was to take $200 (two $100 bills) from someone in California and give it (as is) to a family member in need in Iran. For doing this act of kindness he spent 2.5 years of his life in prison.

So many of us do similar charitable things and it is unconscionable that it could land you in jail (Islamic Republic jail) for 2.5 years.

$200. 

Everything is sacred
