An elderly woman named Barbara Gillespie, who should be enjoying retirement, was out delivering Dominos when she fell and had difficulty getting back up.

The footage was captured on a family's security camera, and it'll break your heart.

 

 

 

Barbara is seen walking to the front of the house, holding the Dominos order. She had trouble getting over the first step onto the porch and then had an unfortunate fall.

The homeowner noticed what happened and came outside to help sweet Barbara up.

Lacy Klein and her husband felt awful and started a GoFundMe.

Hi, my name is Lacey and my husband and I are trying to fundraise for our Dominos delivery driver Barbara. Today she took a rough fall on our front porch while delivering our food. We would like to bless her by bringing by a "tip" to help her with anything she may need. She is an older woman who fell and only cared about the food she dropped. Let's show her some kindness and take off some of this burden that our economy is causing the older generations especially!! Thank you all ❀️

The unfortunate video went viral – with over 2.5 million views on TikTok alone. And the fundraiser, which was started just 5 days ago, has raised over $220,000!

Our elderly should not be working.

It's heartbreaking to see but kudos to the Klein family for helping Barbara reach retirement!

She deserves it.
