Pope Francis’ Final Act of Compassion—A Generous €200,000 Gift to Prisoners in Rome.

(With love from Rome)

As it trends.

As the world awaits the white smoke, signaling the appointment of a new Pope, a remarkable revelation is making waves across social media—one that sheds light on the selfless generosity of the late Pope Francis.

Before his passing, Pope Francis donated €200,000 from his personal account to support prisoners in Rome’s Regina Coeli prison.

Known for his unwavering compassion, the late pontiff made a surprise visit to the overcrowded facility, offering words of encouragement to inmates.

His donation aimed to provide essential resources for those in need, reinforcing his lifelong commitment to mercy and justice.

According to media reports, Pope Francis never accepted a salary during his time as the head of the Catholic Church.

While the position of Pope is entitled to a monthly salary of around $32,000, he chose to donate the funds to charity or place them in a trust for other humanitarian causes.

His legacy of kindness and humility continues to inspire millions worldwide.
