Holiday Inn Express Generosity
Story★★★★A sales representative walked into a Holiday Inn Express on Monday evening and noticed a young lady on the phone with three boys beside her. He overheard she was having trouble arranging money to stay at the hotel due to fleeing an abusive situation. The man, inspired by recent church teachings on generosity, quietly told the receptionist he wanted to pay for their room and also left money for food and gas. The next morning, he received a heartfelt note from the lady expressing her gratitude.
