"Bless him. I love the way he said that he would give 10% to his church. That's true gratitude when someone thinks of already giving what they have received, especially when they don't have much."
Another display of goodwill
Legit.ng previously reported that South Africa's "faceless philanthropist" BI Phakathi shared a powerful video from America of a good Samaritan who helped a homeless woman not only with money but also a job.
In the video, the woman, Naomi, explains that she has been lucky enough to stay at a hotel due to the kindness of a woman working there. Normally she sleeps in her car.
She explains that she wants to get a job to provide for her family. The man whose name was revealed as Eric gave her N7,000 and after listening to her story he gave her a further N38,000.
