Spencer, from SB Mowing, was contacted by a friend at the city about Beth, who was struggling with an overgrown lawn. The city had issued a warning, threatening to charge her $240 for maintenance—a fee she couldn’t afford.

Spencer visited Beth’s home, where she shared her struggles in finding help. Moved by her situation, he transformed her lawn for free. Beth was overwhelmed with gratitude, brought to tears by the kind gesture.

Spencer shared the heartwarming transformation in a video titled "Her Tears Said It All: 'My Prayers Have Been Answered'", and the response was overwhelming.

Viewers were eager to help Beth beyond her lawn, suggesting donations to address accessibility issues at her home, such as installing a ramp, repairing her driveway, and adding a chair lift.

Spencer set up a GoFundMe page with a goal of $100,000, but the donations quickly surpassed expectations. Over 28,000 people contributed, with one donor giving $2,500.

Spencer recorded the moment he informed Beth about the fundraising efforts. Her reaction was pure and emotional, as she tearfully asked, “Why?”
