This Genuine Rock Star Is Washing Dishes To Feed The Struggling [View all]

In 2011, Jon Bon Jovi and his wife of 31 years Dorothea, opened up the restaurant Soul Kitchen in his home state of New Jersey with one sole purpose.
To feed those that would otherwise be hungry.
“One in six people in America are suffering at night and going to bed hungry, and one in five families live at or below the poverty line,” he said at the time.
The motto is:
All are welcome at our table where organic, locally-sourced ingredients, dignity and respect are always on the menu.

Which brings us to today.
Living with the pandemic.
The picture in the header was taken by a random Facebook user, Garry Conley, who had this to say…

“I have a confession to make. I would not know Jon Bon Jovi if he walked in this building. I cannot name a single song he has ever recorded. It's not that I don't like him or his music, I have just never really been exposed to it. This superstar is washing dishes at one of his JBJ Soul Kitchen restaurants that feed the homeless. They're still cooking. Still making food for those in need during these uncertain times. And instead of disappearing to wait out the pandemic in a fancy penthouse somewhere, Jon Bon Jovi is showing up to be a dishwasher.

Now THAT's what it means to be a rock star."
