So far, Crowell, who delivers mail on routes near Concord, New Hampshire, has handed out at least 25 gift cards.

One of the thank-you cards read: "This year has not been easy for most, but I think being able to make someone's day is important. ... Thank you for being an essential worker, it means a lot."
Crowell is using his personal money to buy the gift cards, he said.
"I'm not very well-off myself, but I look at it as, if I put a smile on somebody's face, then I will do it."
