A Facebook post from Empanada Nirvana is going viral. On Thursday, the Puerto Rican Restaurant shared a photo (seen above and below) of a stocked fridge that is located outside the eatery.

"This is tonight’s leftovers Community fridge is outside if you’re hungry Take what you need every night we put food inside feed the need ☮️," Empanada Nirvana wrote on Facebook.

Turns out, the Orange County, New York business stocks a fridge outside the business each night with leftovers. Rather than toss the food, the Walden, New York restaurant wants to help community members who might be in need.
