Meet Aaron Biber....
Aaron Biber is an 89-year-old man from Tottenham who's been cutting hair for the past 41 years. And during last weekend's riots, his barbershop was destroyed.
And since he said he hasn't got insurance and he can't afford the repairs, the Internet stepped in and decided to give him a hand and help him rebuild.
Keep Aaron Cutting is the site where you too can help, with your Paypal.
