Catherine has always had a big heart. Customers always find her sporting a smile while working at a bakery.

“She’s an angel among us,” Catherine’s friend, Debbie, says in the above video posted by I Like Giving — a nonprofit that works to inspire generosity in the public at large. “If you watch her [at work], everybody comes in to see Catherine.”

Catherine told Debbie she’d been saving money in order to buy a new car, as the one she owned needed costly repairs. A few months later, when Debbie asked how the car fund was coming along, Catherine revealed she’d given the $5,000 she’d saved to a widow in need.

“I cannot give what I don’t have,” Catherine said. “So I just gave what I had.” That’s when Debbie decided she had to act. She and her husband went to a car dealership to inquire about purchasing a vehicle.
