On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man by the name of Billy Harris. She reached into her change purse and put all the coins she had into his collection can. Little did either realize that this small act of generosity (慷慨) would change their lives forever.
It was not until the following morning that Sarah realized that she had given Billy not only all her change, but also her diamond engagement (订婚) ring that she had placed in her change purse earlier, because it had been bothering her finger. She and her husband Bill Krejci rushed to see if they could find Billy. Not only was the homeless man in the same place, but he also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying their pockets of all the cash they had — about $60USD.
However, Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man, especially after the story spread and hundreds of people reached out tosee how they could help Billy. So on February 18th, he set up a special page for him on fundraising site Give Forward with a goal of raising $1,000USD in 90 days. In just four days, the donations ballooned to over $85,000USD and there seemed to be no end in sight yet.
And that’s not all. Thanks to all the media coverage, Billy was reunited with his older brother Edwin Harris, who he had been unable to find for 27 years. Edwin is planning to come to get Billy and take him to his home in Texas.
