With all the darkness in the world today, it’s easy to forget that there are still good people out there doing kind things for one another. That’s why it’s so heartwarming that two anonymous Good Samaritans have restored our faith in humanity by paying off $95,000-worth of medical bills at Pratt Regional Medical Center in Pratt, Kansas.

USPS mail carrier Britt Oller was delivering mail on Tuesday when she noticed something different in the mail.

“I just kept seeing this red thing on the top of the letter saying this is not a bill open immediately for records and I just thought man I hope these people read this,” Oller recalled to KSN.

Oller was stunned when she returned home to find that the same letter had been delivered to her house.

“I searched further the letter it said you have been chosen by an anonymous donor and we have paid off your hospital bills,” she said.

Officials at Pratt Regional Medical Center revealed that they were able to pay off the bills of 430 families thanks to the kindness of these two donors.

“The majority came from one donor but both of the gifts together were 95,000 dollars to help people in need here at Pratt Regional Medical Center,” said Luke Kumberg, the director of patient financial services.

He added that the donations went to cover patients bills of $300 or less.

“Charity starts from the heart and this donor must have an enormously large heart,” said Kumberg.

Oller was particularly touched by this act of kindness, given everything that has happened over the past year.

“Especially right now during the pandemic, I have kids in school anytime they come in possible contact my husband, and I have to take non-paid leave so that goes a long way,” said Oller.

This has been an unprecedentedly difficult year for everyone in the world, as we have had to suffer through a global pandemic. It can become easy to get wrapped up in all of the negative, and forget all the positive things that are happening all around us. Let’s all pay this act of kindness forward, and do something kind for someone else the next time we have the opportunity to do so!
