A Florida man is being praised this week after he was spotted buying 100 generators to send to the Bahamas in response to the devastation Hurricane Dorian unleashed on the islands.
Alec Sprague of Jacksonville told reporters that he saw a man buying over 100 generators in a Costco, intending to send them all to the Bahamas.
“Was just in Cosco off Collins getting a generator (at $450 each) and this guy right here is purchasing over 100 generators and food to send to the Bahamas!” Alec wrote on Facebook. “All I could do was shake his hand and thank him! There still are good people in the world!”
The post has quickly gone viral, with people all over the world praising the man for his kind deed.
“May god bless this mans good heart god will multiply his blessings for his help and good gesture whom ever he is,” one social media user commented, with another adding, “What a guardian angel you are Sir. God bless you.”
Hurricane Dorian wreaked havoc on the Bahamas, leaving seven people dead and destroying everything in it’s wake.
