Last Friday, YouTuber Jeffree Star announced that he would be helping those that had been affected by the coronavirus outbreak.
This act of kindness was driven by Jeffree wanting to do more after tipping a driver — who delivered food to his home — $1000 as a way of saying thank you.
I appreciate every single person who is willing or able to deliver food during this horrible time… I just tipped my driver $1,000 and said a huge THANK YOU 🙏🏻
Over the past week, he has been donating upwards of $250 to a number of fans whose jobs have been made redundant, or who were struggling to pay their bills.
Don’t EVER be embarrassed by your financial situation… 💖 Love you and I hope this helps 💯 https://t.co/4mctZLUFpK
My @CashApp account has been verified! Hope this helps Brit 😘 #JeffreeStarApproved https://t.co/QHU3N0mWbV
And now, in a collaboration with Bill Pulte — a Twitter philanthropist — Jeffree has given away $30,000 to a women named Aurora.
I’m going to give away $30,000 to 1 random person who retweets this tweet AND follows Twitter Philanthropist @Pulte and Me!! (If you don’t follow us, we can’t DM you the money) Will show proof! Much love
Jeffree revealed the news to her via Facetime, where she immediately burst into tears.
At first, Aurora — who is a mother to two kids — couldn't believe what she was hearing.
But after being reassured by Jeffree, she revealed just how much of an impact the donation would make: "I won't be in debt anymore...I won't have to struggle paying my bills. I can put some money aside for both of my kids now."
Shout out to Jeffree Star for giving back to those who need it most during these difficult times. 👏
And if you feel like happy crying today, here is the entire video for you to watch.
The $30,000 went to this lucky lady! The money is already in her bank account! 🥰❤️ Watch us surprise her! We are going to keep helping people! Love you guys 🌟
