Retired barber gives free haircuts — and donates his tips to help poor South Africans
CBSN
In the basement of a Minnesota retirement home, in a workshop-turned-barber shop, Tom Gorzycki is doing what he's done for 70 years — cutting hair. While the haircuts are free, tips are expected and appreciated, but they aren't for him.
Gorzycki learned to cut hair in the Navy, then perfected his skills over 36 years at his Minneapolis barber shop. Now, the 87-year-old retiree uses those skills to help the poorest people of South Africa.
"There's a need and I have resources. That's what you do," Gorzycki said.
