NEWSTRENDINGTRENDING IN INDIASOCIAL ACTIVIST KIRAN VERMA

Kiran Verma, social activist and founder of Simply Blood, recently shared a heartwarming encounter during his ongoing 21000 km walk for blood donation awareness. Verma took to social media platform Facebook to recount his encounter with an Uber driver, whose plight touched his heart. During the ride, Verma overheard the driver’s daughter pleading for a school bag, a request the struggling father found difficult to fulfill due to financial constraints.   “I booked an Uber cab today, the driver picked me and he started the ride. During the ride, he got calls and he disconnected 2-3 times. After that I insisted him to pick up the call.He did and the sound from the other side was quite audible to me. It was his daughter and she was asking for a school bag.” he began his post. ADVERTISEMENT Powered By   Video Player is loading.

Despite facing financial limitations himself, Verma selflessly covered the cost using his wife’s account, emphasising the importance of kindness and assisting those in need.

I don’t have words, how rich I feel after this. But gratitude to each and every father who never let their kids down.” The driver, overwhelmed by Verma’s gesture, expressed his gratitude, and later sent a heartfelt picture of his daughter beaming with joy, a testament to the profound impact of Verma’s act of kindness. Verma’s post also ends with, “I am sure my wife won’t get angry at me for spending her money. Just be kind and help anyone in need, the world would look beautiful.” Also Read | Digital creator buys meal for family in need; post melts hearts across social media Netizens were quick to express praise and shower the post with positive comments where one user said, “Best part is you didn’t disclose their identity.” Another added, “They say money can’t buy happiness But see you bought happiness for that little angel ..
