This is a nice story. After Aaron Collins died just three weeks after his 30th birthday, his family began fulfilling one of the wishes from his will, which was to "leave an awesome tip (and I don't mean 25 per cent. I mean $500 on a ... pizza for a waiter or waitress)." Over the past year since then, they have been unsuspectingly doling out 500$ to pizza servers across the US to carry on his legacy, and continue to do so. They have set up a website documenting some of the surprise tips, and people have become inspired and helped to donate to the family for the project. Watching some of the videos of his brother Seth fulfilling Aaron's Last Wish is pretty touching. http://aaroncollins.org/ Video of the initial Last Wish tip: At a Pizza Hut where Aaron worked: As of gift 54, they had given away $26,000 to wait staff. ....and many more from the roadtrip. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the pizza joints are recognizable to some folks on here. A nice way to honour his memory, and a huge difference that these waiters and waitresses will never forget. |
