In a world where kindness can sometimes seem scarce, it’s refreshing to hear stories of celebrities using their platforms to make a positive impact. Donnie Wahlberg, a singer-songwriter and member of the iconic band New Kids on the Block, recently demonstrated his generosity in a remarkable way.
Bethany Provencher, a hardworking single mom, had just moved to St. Charles, Illinois, with her 11-year-old son. Despite her best efforts, she was struggling to make ends meet, working at a local IHOP to provide for her family. Her new apartment was still unfurnished due to financial constraints.
One day, Donnie Wahlberg and his wife, Jenny McCarthy, walked into the IHOP where Bethany was working. Recognizing the famous singer, Bethany was thrilled to serve him. What she didn’t know was that this encounter would change her life.
After finishing their meal, Donnie paid the $35.27 check and left a surprising message on the receipt. Alongside a smiley face, he wrote, “Thanks, Bethany, Happy New Year. 2020 Tip Challenge.” But the real surprise came when Bethany unfolded the receipt to discover a staggering $2,020 tip!
This heartwarming gesture not only brought joy to Bethany but also inspired others to pay it forward. Donnie’s kindness is a reminder that even small acts can make a significant difference in someone’s life.
