This California couple was eager to help out new parents who struggled in the pandemic. Their act of kindness was aimed at families with babies and toddlers and their effort went viral.
They shared a video with their outings to several Target stores in California where they placed money inside baby items.
Couple Hides Money in Baby Products in Target
Krystal Duhaney has a 5-year-old and an 8-year-old and she’s expecting a third child in October together with her husband Patrick.
Krystal works as a nurse and a lactation consultant and she says that during a recent shopping trip with her husband, she noticed that baby items have gotten quite expensive since the days they had their first child.
This is when they recalled how difficult it was for them when they were new parents to purchase basic stuff. So, they knew it must be hard buying baby stuff during the pandemic.
To brighten the days of several parents, the couple decided to hide money in baby items like diaper boxes, bottles, and breast pump supplies in three Target stores.
We Want to Give Back Because We Know How Hard It can Be
On her Instagram reel where she shared a video of their kind deed, Krystal wrote that when they had their first child, they were struggling to make ends meet.
So, now, when she’s running her own business and doing better, she wants to give back because she understands the struggle.
She also reminded parents that they’re doing a great job and that their baby loves them a lot. The couple hid around thousand USD that day.
They also emphasized how supportive their neighbors, friends, family, and coworkers were. They showered them with meals, offered help with their yard, and did so much more.
This is why she wanted other parents who may be feeling alone to know that there’s somebody out there who cares.
Moreover, in addition to feeling supported, she encourages the lucky finders to pay the act of kindness forward and also help other parents in need.
