This is not the only act of kindness moment floating around the internet. An anonymous philanthropist has spread kindness and generosity in the community through charitable acts. According to a report by Metro UK, an unnamed individual has been posting envelopes containing money in people’s letterboxes. While the individual’s identity remains unknown, a resident claims that she saw a girl posting an envelope in her house and noticed a strange car parked in the area.

On December 23, random households in the Clifton neighbourhood received cash-filled envelopes. The envelopes received by the families had the phrase ‘random act of kindness’ written on them, and they contained a substantial amount of £100 (nearly Rs 10,000). One of the lucky recipients, Sarah Lynne, said that it was her son who discovered the envelope, and he asked if it was from Santa. Overwhelmed by the kind gesture, Lynne said that the money would be helpful this year. She also went shopping with the money, bought treats for her son, and donated food to food banks. “The person behind this act is a hidden hero and has the kindest heart,” Lynne added.

According to the report, Peter Dennis, a resident of Clifton, Nottingham, stated that his wife discovered an envelope in their letterbox and was moved by the generous act. The resident revealed that his wife is going through a difficult time following the loss of her father and the unexpected gift had a profound impact on her emotions.
