Destitute and desperate, a homeless man stands on the side of the road begging for help, but then a student pulls over and gives him clothes and everything he has.
The moment was captured on TikTok when a young man by the name of Jacabri Richardson sees the homeless man on the side of the road. He pulls over and asks how he can help the man out.
Though the student didn’t have much to give, his heart was moved to compassion for this man.
Jacabri literally takes the shirt off of his back and gives it to him. Then he takes off his shoes and gives those to the homeless man as well. But what Jacabri didn’t know was that he was being recorded.
Student's Act Of Kindness Goes Viral
Later, the video was uploaded to TikTok with the caption, “I don’t know this young man but he deserves to go viral.”

The video where the student gives clothes to the homeless man has received more than six million views and more than 14,000 comments. But then a news station learned of the story and asked the student why he gave the clothes off his back.
“As I was growing up, my mom always taught me there’s a lot of people that are in need. Not everyone’s blessed as I am. My Mom always had clothes and shoes on my back. I can definitely take that for granted. Anything can be gone in the blink of an eye,” Jacabri said.
Whoa! This young man’s perspective is just refreshing. May we all realize how blessed we are.
Jacabri, we thank you for your act of kindness. We also are in awe of how well your mama raised you. May we all remember your actions and find a way to spread God’s love when an opportunity arises.
