Stranger Gives Little Girl Huge Some of Money To Purchase Christmas Gift
An little girl’s Christmas wishes were fulfilled by a stranger’s incredible act of kindness.
Alexis Corry was in Belfast city centre with her mum on Saturday when a stranger overheared Alexis’ conversation with her mum, Roisin.
The Mirror reports,
Alexis’ Mum, Roisin told Belfast Live: “Alexis was walking down and she’s just a typical wee girl: She saw something interesting and it caught her attention.
“She saw that a lady was putting a tray into the window – and it was just about at her eye level.
“Alexis went over to the window and she was waving at the lady saying, “Hiya” – she was just fascinated looking at it.
“I just laughed and said to her: “One day you’ll cost someone a lot of money!””And that was when the stranger – described as well-dressed with glasses and in his late 40s – stepped in.
Roisin continued: “I wasn’t even aware that there was a man nearby.
“He was looking at the other window in the jewellers.
“He came over and he said: “Alexis, you put out your hand.”
“He took her hand, opened it and said: “There’s some money, that’s a start for you.”
“We said “Thank you so much” – and he said: “You have a lovely Christmas Alexis.”But it wasn’t until he walked away that Roisin realised just how much he had given little Alexis. It was a huge £100. It means that her parents are now able to buy her a little bike for Christmas.
She explained: “I just burst into tears.
“I’m just so humbled that anybody would do that.
“I think it’s just incredible.
“I work in retail and I can see sometimes how grumpy people can be around Christmas time and to do something like that for a two-year-old, I think it just totally overwhelmed us.”She is extremely keen to find out who the man was so she can thank him, or that he reads this piece to know what it meant to the family.
Roisin said: “If he reads this I’d just say to him: Thank you so much.
“I just think what he did is a total inspiration.
“It just makes you believe that there are good people out there.
“The difference that will make to her Christmas.
“It is just incredible – and we’re now able to get her a wee bike.
“We’re still in total shock.”
