Today I met Bre & Austin's family at Walmart. I asked if the money on the ground belonged to them. Even though they could have easily claimed it, they chose to tell the truth and said it wasn't theirs. To reward their honesty, we gave them $1,000. They broke down in tears as they shared their story. Their daughter, Katie, has terminal brain cancer and has been given only a few months to live. The family has spent everything they had trying to save her, and the financial burden has been overwhelming. They're currently homeless and have lived in tents and hotels just trying to survive. The cost of treatment is hundreds of thousands of dollars, and they're desperately trying to keep fighting while searching for stable housing and shelter. And yet, even in the middle of all that heartbreak, they still chose honesty. A family like this shouldn't have to carry this burden alone. Let's rally around them to help Katie continue her fight against cancer and give this courageous family a safe place to call home. Do your thing, internet ❤️

Today I met a single mom named Kenya at Walmart. I asked her if she could help me buy diapers. Without hesitation, she offered to pay for them. To reward her kindness, I gave her $500. She broke down in tears as she shared her story. Kenya is a single mom battling more than most people could imagine. She’s currently experiencing homelessness, has no car, and struggles to keep a job because she has no reliable way to get to work. Every day is a fight just to provide the basics for her family. Every day she can, she does ministry, sharing the gospel with people on the streets and caring for their needs. And yet, even in the middle of all that hardship, she was still willing to help a complete stranger. A mom like Kenya shouldn’t have to carry this burden alone. Let’s come together to help her find stable housing, reliable transportation, and give her the fresh start she deserves. Do your thing, internet ❤️

Today I met Beth at Walmart. I asked if she could help me buy baby food, and without hesitation, she offered to pay. That’s when I stopped her and told her I was actually looking for someone willing to help a stranger. Then I gave her $500. She broke down crying and shared her story. Beth is about to give birth in just a few days. Her baby is breech, so she’ll likely need a C-section—and she’ll be recovering completely alone. Her entire family lives in Ghana, and she has no one here to help her. She’s fallen behind on her bills and rent and can’t afford even the basic necessities, let alone everything a newborn needs. She’s terrified of bringing her baby into the world without enough to provide for them, and right now she’s simply trying to keep a roof over their heads while preparing to give birth. Even with everything she’s facing, she was still willing to help someone else. Let’s help her. Every dollar will go toward helping Beth and her baby get into a stable home, catch up on essential bills, provide everything her newborn needs, and give them a safe, secure start together. Let’s show her she’s not alone and be the family she doesn’t have nearby. Do your thing internet ❤️

Today I met a 89-year-old woman named Nona. I asked her if a diamond ring belonged to her. Even though she could have easily said yes, she chose to tell the truth and said it wasn't hers. To reward her honesty, I gave her $1,000. She immediately began to tear up as she shared her story. Nona recently lost her husband after they were unable to afford to repair the air conditioning in their home during extreme heat paired with his health conditions. Since then, she's been forced to move out of the house they shared, and she's still struggling to afford basic necessities, including keeping a cool place to live. Nona is currently living in hotel rooms. And yet, even after everything she's been through and with $60 to her name, she still chose honesty. A woman like Nona shouldn't have to face this season of life alone. Let's rally around her and help provide the comfort, stability, and peace she deserves. Do your thing, internet ❤️

Today I met a mom named Victoria at a park. I asked her if she had dropped a necklace. Even though she’s facing challenges most of us can’t imagine, she chose to tell the truth. To reward her honesty, I gave her $1,000. She immediately began to weep as she shared her story. Victoria is doing everything she can to provide for her son and daughter, but she’s fallen behind on rent and bills after losing her job and is deeply struggling to keep her family afloat. The fear of being on the streets weighs on her every single day. On top of the financial burden, her daughter has been dealing with ongoing health challenges, and her son has been bullied at school. It’s been an incredibly difficult season for their family. And yet, despite everything they’re carrying, Victoria still chose honesty. A mom like Victoria shouldn’t have to worry about getting evicted while trying to care for her children. Let’s come together and help lift some of the weight off her shoulders so she can focus on her family instead of wondering how she’ll make it through another month. Do your thing, internet ❤️

A Mother Who Had Nothing Still Chose Kindness Today, I met a woman named Shadae in a Walmart parking lot. I approached her and asked if she could spare some food. What happened next caught me completely off guard. Despite facing struggles that most people can't imagine, Shadae didn't hesitate to help. To thank her for her kindness, I gave her $500. As tears filled her eyes, she began sharing her story. Shadae is a mother of a 5-year-old daughter. Right now, they are experiencing homelessness. She has no reliable transportation, no permanent place to call home, and every day is a fight to provide for her little girl. Yet even in the middle of her own hardship, she was willing to give to someone else. When many people would have focused only on their own needs, Shadae chose compassion. That moment reminded me that some of the most generous hearts belong to people who have the least. No mother should have to wonder where her child will sleep. No child should have to grow up without the stability and security every family deserves. We’re raising money to help Shadae and her daughter secure safe housing, reliable transportation, basic necessities, and a foundation for a brighter future. If her story moved you, please consider donating or sharing this fundraiser. Every dollar and every share brings this family one step closer to stability and hope. Let’s show Shadae that the same kindness she showed a stranger can come back to her a thousand times over. ❤️
