In a refreshing moment of decency that’s striking a chord online, a Michigan mail carrier is being praised for returning a lost $10 bill he spotted in a homeowner’s driveway—rather than pocketing it and moving on.
The mailman, now identified as Joshua O’Hara, found the cash while delivering mail and made a point to try returning it. After ringing the doorbell and getting no answer, he left the money in the mailbox along with a handwritten note explaining what he’d found and where.
Moved by the gesture, they shared the video online, and the clip quickly gained traction. Viewers were quick to recognize O’Hara, with many praising his honesty and integrity in the comments.
When interviewed, O’Hara offered a simple explanation for his choice: “Being kind to others doesn’t cost a thing. You never know who needs it, and one good deed can have a ripple effect.”
That ripple effect seems to be playing out exactly as he described. Messages of appreciation and admiration have poured in from across social media, with many calling O’Hara a reminder that small actions can still make a difference.
