Aston Villa trio serve food to the homeless at Birmingham soup kitchen

Professional footballers, somewhat unfairly at times, are made out as being money-obsessed young men who are completely out of touch with the rest of society.

Obviously, many of them are extremely well paid for what they do (just look at the latest about how much Cristiano Ronaldo raked in last year, for crying out loud), but to jump to the conclusion that they don't give anything back is not always the case. An example of this came on Friday night, when Aston Villa players Rudy Gestede, Jordan Ayew and Jonathan Kodija were pictured serving food to the homeless in Birmingham city centre. On the eve of their Championship meeting with Wigan Athletic, the trio of players were helping out at the Homeless Heroes soup kitchen in the Albert Street area of the city. https://twitter.com/avfcofficial/status/807338692557860864 Good on 'em.
