Today I met a couple named Brad and Tara at Walmart. I asked them if they had dropped $100. Even though they’re currently homeless and struggling more than most people could imagine, they chose to tell the truth. To reward their honesty, I gave them $1,000. They were completely shocked and began to tear up as they shared their story. Brad and Tara are living on the streets with their 2-year-old son, doing everything they can to survive day by day. Tara has been battling serious health issues for a long time and recently suffered a stroke. Between her medical struggles, trying to care for their little boy, and not having a safe place to sleep at night, the weight they’re carrying has been overwhelming. And yet, even in the middle of all of that pain and uncertainty, they still chose honesty. In a moment where they could have easily kept the money, they chose to do the right thing. A family like Brad, Tara, and their son shouldn’t have to go through this alone. Let’s rally around them and help get this family into a safe place to live so they can experience stability, healing, and hope in this season of life. Do your thing, internet ❤️

Today, I met an incredible single mom at Walmart. I asked her if she could spare a few dollars so I could get some food because I hadn’t eaten all day. Without hesitation, she reached into her purse and gave me $2. Tasha didn’t know me. She didn’t ask questions. She just chose kindness. That’s when I told her I didn’t actually need the money—I just wanted to see if someone would help. And because she did, I gave her $500 to thank her. She immediately started crying. She shared that she’s a single mom, doing everything she can to raise her son on her own. Her son has autism, and she’s been working hard to get him into therapy so he can learn to communicate more. At the same time she’s behind on bills and trying to go to school to become an esthetician so she can build a better future for them. But right now, the bills are piling up. She’s carrying the weight of being both mom and dad, with no real support system. And still… she chose to give. Someone like this shouldn’t have to struggle alone. Let’s come together and support this amazing mom—help her get through school, get her son the therapy he needs, and give them a real chance at a stable, hopeful future. Every donation makes a difference. ❤️

Today I met a couple named Eduardo and his wife at Walmart. I asked them if they dropped their wallet and immediately they said no and were honest. Even though they didn’t know me, and even though they’re carrying more than most people ever should, they still chose to be honest. To reward their honesty, I gave them $500. They were so shocked and began to tear up as they shared their story. Eduardo is a father who already endured the unimaginable—losing his son to cancer. Now, as the sole provider for his family, he’s battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer himself. His wife is standing by his side through it all. He can’t work, the bills are piling up, and they’re on the verge of being evicted and losing their home. They’re doing everything they can to hold things together, but it’s overwhelming. Even with all the weight they’re carrying, they still chose kindness. In a moment where they could have said yes, they stepped in to help. A couple like Eduardo and his wife, who continue to show up for others in the middle of this kind of pain, shouldn’t have to go through this alone. Let’s rally around them and help keep their family off the streets so they can have some peace and stability in this season. Do your thing, internet ❤️ Eduardo's daughter, Tiffany, is receiving the funds on her parents behalf to help.

Today I met an 81-year-old man named Gary at Walmart. I asked him if he could help me buy baby food. He didn’t know me, and even though he’s behind on his house payment and worried about losing his home, he still said yes. Afterward, I gave him $500 to thank him for his kindness. He was shocked and started to tear up as he told me his story. Gary is 81 years old and a Vietnam veteran who has already given so much in his life. Right now, he’s going through a really hard season. He’s behind on his mortgage and afraid he might lose the home he’s lived in for years. He’s also battling skin cancer. On top of that, someone recently broke into his car and stole many of his belongings, including his phone. He’s doing everything he can to stay afloat, but it’s been overwhelming and his wife just got laid off from her job. And even with all of that, he still chose to help a stranger. Someone like Gary shouldn’t have to go through this alone. Let’s come together and help him stay in his home, fight cancer, and find some peace in this season of his life. Do your thing, internet ❤️

Today I met a single mom named Peaches at Walmart. I asked her if she had dropped a diamond ring. Even though she could have really used it, she told me the truth that it wasn’t hers. So I gave her $1,000. She immediately broke down in tears and shared her story. Peaches and her two sons are facing homelessness after their home burned down, and their father passed away. She has no car, no money for groceries, and is doing everything she can to hold her family together. And still she chose honesty. A mom fighting this hard for her kids shouldn’t have to do it alone. Let’s rally around Peaches and help her get a home and a car so her family can have a safe place to live and a real chance to rebuild. Do your thing, internet ❤️

Today I met a grandpa named Herman at Walmart. I asked him if he could help me get some baby food and if he had just $1 dollar. Without hesitation, he said, “I got you,” and instead of just giving me a dollar, he bought the whole item for me. To reward his kindness, I surprised him with $500 dollars outside… He immediately broke down in tears. Herman shared with me that the woman he had been with for the last 9 years had just passed away. In the midst of that he also found out he has stage 4 cancer. Herman has nowhere to call home and temporarily living at a friend’s place. He told me he really needed this and was pretty behind on bills. Herman spent 12 years in prison before he was exonerated for a crime he did not commit and has since gone around the country speaking on judicial reform. He then shared his dream with me. He said his dream is to just have a place to live and have his health so he can be there for his grandson, his only joy in life. That moment absolutely broke me. Even with everything Herman is going through, he still chose to help a complete stranger. In a moment where he didn’t have to give anything, he gave anyway. A grandfather walking through this much pain should not have to do it alone. Let’s help Herman get a home so he can have the stability, peace, and more time with his grandson that he deserves.

Today I met a single mom and grandma named Amanda in Walmart. I asked her if she had dropped $100, and she was honest and told me no even though she really could have used it. To reward her honesty, I gave her $1500. She immediately broke down in tears. Amanda shared with me that she is only a month away from homelessness. She has no car, no money for groceries, and is doing everything she can to care for her children and grandchildren. Her son Cody was with her, and through tears he shared that he’s been bullied at school, but still said that God has been good to him. That moment absolutely broke me. Even with all the weight Amanda is carrying, she still chose honesty. In a moment where she could have taken the money, she told the truth. A single mom and grandma fighting this hard for her family should not have to carry this alone. Let’s rally around Amanda and help her get a home so she and her precious family can have a safe, stable place to stay. Do your thing, internet ❤️
