Coffee Santa Triggers Copycat Generosity Across Canada
For the third time in a week a generous customer at a coffee chain in Canada has handed over around $900 to pay for beverages -- and this time some food -- in an identical gesture of goodwill.
35-year-old Jen Bulik received some bad news about lung cancer and wanted to get married before time ran out. As often is the case, out of bad news comes extraordinary stories of kindness. This one was delivered by a wedding planner moved to donate a $50,000 wedding to the beautiful couple whom she only heard about through a Facebook post.
"It was my goal for them not to pay a dime," said Erica Ota, who was impressed by Jen's positive writings on her blog. "I thought to myself these people have already suffered enough, why not be able to give them a gift? A wonderful gift that they, and their families will never be able to forget."
It all comes together – with only two weeks of planning — this Saturday in San Francisco.
