The Quint: This Cancer Patient is Overwhelmed as Hundreds Queue up to Donate

  • 5 years ago
It’s not everyday that we see something that restores our faith in humanity!
However, this particular video - about 30-year-old Amanda Koefod from the US, who has been diagnosed with stage 3 Hodgkins Lymphoma (cancer) - happens to be one of those rare ones that narrate a tale people’s selfless love and generosity.

While shooting a video appealing for funds as part of an online campaign, Amanda and her husband are taken by complete surprise when they see hundreds of people coming into a store to voluntarily donate money to fund her treatment.
With a queue of people extending till outside the store, the couple are visibly overwhelmed with emotion.
Now, this act of generosity - which managed to raise around 13,000 in the end - must have surely come as a relief for Amanda, who does not even have a health insurance.
