A good Samaritan helped in a surprising double amount for an 81-year-old waitress who discovered she was too poor to retire.
Lifetime -style influencer Tamie Cossier and her son posted a public call for help on her Tiktok account after observing that Betty, a server at an Eat’n Park dinner in Pittsburgh, was trying to walk during its change.
While the duo was eating at the Chain restaurant, they heard that my big three clients told customers at a nearby table that she had to continue to work long hours on foot because her government’s benefits did not come to her month.
“She only makes $ 910 a month for social security and she still has to work because her bills exceed $ 910 a month,” Konzier said in a video posted on Tiktok on Wednesday. “Anydo’s income I receive from this video to the Tiktok Creator Rewards Program. I’ll come back and give it.”
The Tiktok Creator Rewards Program pays the creators of acceptable content with over 10,000 followers when their videos during a minute performance well.
Cossier, who has over 123,000 followers in Tikto, gave Betty a $ 40 advice before their meal, but still wanted to do more for the season server.
“I worked all my life as a waitress and I still can’t retire,” Betty said when she got the cash.
The old server then joked that she “can still get out of these Snappers Whipper” at dinner.
The initial clip was viewed 6.1 million times.
Custover will not receive the salary from Tiktok by mid -April, so she decided to create a gofundm site, as her online community sought to go inside.
The Gofundme site collected over 100,000 in less than 24 hours.
“I am overwhelmed with joy, but as overloaded with all the messages because I never know it would happen,” I was tears in a tiktok video posted on Thursday.
The fundraising had reached $ 140,000 when the influencer discovered Betty news.
“I think you better get a financial adviser,” joking Betty when he discovered life -changing news.
“She wants to lower her watch, but she said she doesn’t want to retire fully because she goes on,” Conseri said. “I told her [that] She was welcome to do everything she wanted to do with money. “
By Friday morning, the Gofundme site collected $ 222,129.
“That’s the most beautiful thing on the internet today,” commented one person.
