David Christopher, or "Uncle David," is a 65-year-old from near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He is known by locals for selling soft toys on the street, reportedly to fund his medical expenses for leukemia treatment.
People had traveled from across the country to help Christopher. One woman, Munas Van Boonstra, told The Star she'd come to buy all 250 of the toys to send to charities across Malaysia and Singapore.
Christopher told The Star that the response to his problem was like "God sent his soldiers around."
