December 19, 2016
Feeling the Holiday blues? Not after you see this clip.
A video of Somerset High School students gifting two pairs of new shoes to a special-needs classmate has gone viral, showing the world what holiday spirit is really about.
Students raised money to buy sophomore J.R. Gilbert the shoes after the teen, who frequently squeezes his size 13 feet into size 10 shoes, told a classmate he needed bigger shoes.
In the video on the Somerset Independent School District's Facebook page, which has been viewed more than 5 million times, Gilbert is seen unwrapping them in front of a big crowd.
"It's from all of us," junior Roger Villegas tells an ecstatic Gilbert in the video. Everybody here gave them to you."
