Face-Masked Batman is ‘The Superhero to the Homeless’, Bringing Food to Them Across Santiago
An anonymous do-gooder dressed as batman (but with a face mask) delivers food to the homeless people on streets in Santiago Chile.
Social & Lifestyle
The streets of Santiago, Chile may be a long way from Gotham City, but among its citizens dwells a true superhero. Far from being a fictional crime-solver, he’s a real-life hunger fighter who distributes food to the city’s homeless population on a regular basis.
With his Batmobile—or in this case, white SUV—fully stocked with a cargo of hot meals, he dons a shiny black costume complete with a cape and two masks (one with pointy comic book ears and eye slots; the other, for COVID-19 protection).
The self-proclaimed “Solidarity Batman” is doing his part to make life during Chile’s months’ long lockdown more bearable for some of those hardest hit by the current pandemic.
ut this Batman’s do-good mission is about more than simply delivering food. Knowing that sometimes all it takes to nourish the soul is a little humor or a few kind words, he aims to feed people’s hearts as well as fill their stomachs.
He chose the Batman outfit to cheer people up, and it fosters a feeling of togetherness.
