This successful businessman had breakfast every Tuesday with a homeless woman. One day, he discovered how the woman was using the money he gave her and was surprised

Greg Smith, founder of Hybrid Athletes in Orlando, Florida, often crosses paths with homeless individuals in his city. Many ask him for help, but one encounter stood out and left a lasting impact on his heart.

One day, a homeless woman named Aimee Jo approached him—not to ask for money, but simply to say, “Good morning” and offer a blessing. This small but sincere gesture touched Smith deeply, sparking an unexpected friendship.

Since that day, Smith and Aimee Jo have made it a tradition to meet for lunch every Tuesday. But their time together isn’t just about sharing a meal—it’s about something far more meaningful.

Aimee Jo has a dream: she wants to learn how to read.

Despite living on the streets and having few resources, she prioritizes education, spending hours in the library even when she doesn’t have food. Inspired by her determination, Smith decided to help. Now, every Tuesday, they head to the library together, where he patiently teaches her, giving her the support and encouragement she needs.

When Smith shared their story on social media, it wasn’t for praise—it was to inspire others. His message was simple: look around, notice the “Aimee Jos” in your own life, and extend kindness, even if it’s just a friendly greeting.

This story is a powerful reminder that compassion can break barriers, and even small acts of kindness can change lives. Smith’s commitment shows that with a little time and effort, we can make a real difference in the world around us.
