Texas Man Accidentally Donates Couples Life Savings to Goodwill

Texas Man Accidentally Donates Couples Life Savings to Goodwill

Rachel Francois Posted November 20, 2012

‘Tis the season of giving but this Texas man didn’t plan to be this generous.

A Goodwill employee came across thirty-three $100 bills stuffed into a pair of shoes that was accidentally donated to the non-profit retail thrift store, according to Yahoo! News.

The discovered bounty was reportedly the life savings of a Galveston County, Texas couple, unbeknownst to the husband who made a more than charitable gift. Fortunately, the good hearts of a Goodwill employee found the money and set it aside for someone to claim within 7 days. The grateful wife was able to collect the cash.

This is a great dose of Samaritan cheer to kick off the holiday season.
