As Cherootty Nagar Junction in the city wears a new look post-beautification, the Wall of Kindness is its greatest attraction. As the name suggests, it is a place where kindness in abundance is bartered for simple smiles.
Wall of Kindness is essentially a thrift shop where one gets a variety of articles including clothes, toys, bedsheets, furniture, utensils, footwear, and books free of cost. The facility was set up by a group of organisations and individuals with the support of the Kozhikode Corporation. The public can contribute to the shop in the form of materials that remain unused at their homes.
“There are lot of things that we discard just because they have gone out of fashion. It may be nothing to you, but so much for someone who does not have it or cannot afford it,” said P. Divakaran, local councillor and Welfare Standing Committee chairman of the Corporation.
