It may be the time for giving, but some people take that meaning to another level. This is particularly true for Twitch streamer Fairlight, who grabbed the Christmas spirit by the horns and donated $ 4000 to a random food delivery driver for the sixth consecutive year.
Christmas is a difficult time for many. Although most of us have the opportunity to take a break from the stress of life, some people spend their time working to put food on the table. This is true for delivery drivers, who this year are putting themselves at risk to ensure that people have access to food.
It is particularly impressive when streamers set an example for their followers, generating and promoting generosity at this time of year.
Twitch streamer Fairlight, who broadcasts variety to more than 400,000 followers, gave a lot of checks and cash worth $ 4,000 to his Chinese food delivery driver, in a tradition that goes back six years. It was clear that money meant a lot to her, as she could barely contain her tears.
Fairlight had to assure her that he was not, it was not a joke, before presenting her with a series of redeemable checks – all she would need to do was write her name and process them at a bank.
He left a message on Twitter encouraging his followers to help the less fortunate. “This is the true spirit of Christmas, even if you can only help a little,” he added.
Oh yes – Merry Christmas to everyone.
A lot of people saying happy holidays and enjoy your time with the family.
Do it all, but take it a step further and help someone less fortunate than you. This is the true spirit of Christmas, even if you can only help a little

It is incredibly moving to see streamers and influencers giving back to the community at this time of year. People like Mr. Beast are offering their own free gifts, with YouTuber looking like it will break some records along the way.
Of course, Mr. Beast has his own charity story with pizza delivery guys, after he spontaneously donated an entire house to one in December 2019.
Given that Fairlight doesn’t have the same followers as MrBeast, it’s great to see him taking the initiative to brighten someone’s Christmas every year. Hopefully, we will see this six-year tradition extended and spread over the next few years.
