Just call him jolly old Saint Dick.Dick Van Dyke was spotted Friday handing out money to homeless people looking for work at the Malibu Community Labor Exchange.

The 96-year-old “Mary Poppins” star is allegedly a massive fan of the nonprofit and frequently returns to the spot to help those who are looking to find employment.

Dressed in a long-sleeved white shirt, gray sweatpants and black slip-on shoes, Van Dyke was handing out $5 bills as well as chatting with those who came to seek help.“Whenever I have some 5s, I come by,” said Van Dyke to a onlooker. “You can’t do it all the time, though.”According to the staff at the center, the “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” star first started coming to the exchange during the height of the coronavirus pandemic in May 2021. “Just call him an angel from God,” said a staff member.

The Post has reached out to Van Dyke for comment. The actor was later seen at a Malibu pharmacy, allegedly dealing with a case of pink eye. .
