Lost Fortune Found at Market Basket

In Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, a Good Samaritan known as Skip restored faith in humanity by returning an envelope containing $12,000 to 71-year-old Ha, a senior citizen who lost her life savings while shopping at Market Basket. After an unsuccessful search and review of security footage, Ha and her nephew were leaving when Skip and the store manager approached them with the envelope, fully intact. Overwhelmed with gratitude, Ha returned the following day to offer Skip a $300 reward for his honesty and integrity. This act of kindness highlights the exceptional character of everyday heroes who choose to do the right thing in critical moments.
