The account surpassed the goal and was able to raise over $32,000. Wyatt’s father, Kelvin Jones, said:
“He didn’t expect anything he just did something out of the kindness of heart for somebody in need.”
His parents were really happy that their son showed compassion to a stranger without expecting anything in return.
