A six-year-old boy in Chengdu, capital city of Southwest China's Sichuan province, found 0.5 yuan and handed it to police.

To the surprise of the boy's family, a public good platform of the Alibaba Group, which promotes good deeds, rewarded him with 10,000 yuan ($1,443).

With the help of a local government department and his mother, the boy spent the money to buy rice and cooking oil for some 30 street cleaners and thermos cups for police officers patrolling the streets.

The boy found the money while playing with another child in Music Square in the Longquanyi district of Chengdu on Oct 23 and handed it in to a policeman nearby.

His good deed gained the attention of the Alibaba platform, which found him with help of the local government.

On Oct 30, employees from the department accompanied the boy and his kindergarten classmates to send the rice and cooking oil to cleaners and thermos cups to police officers.
