Who said good deeds go unnoticed?
Eight-year-old Abbie Jacobson was shopping with her father one day when she picked up a small purse, inside of which was $4000, a number of gold rings and a debit card!
Abbie Jacobson and Ra Rim
The Jacobson family handed it over to police and soon after, the purse was reunited with its owner, Ra Rim. She was so overjoyed, she invited Abbie over for lunch. Ra Rim is a Cambodian immigrant who needed the money to take her family for a visit back home and if it wasn’t for Abbie’s honesty, the trip would have been cancelled.
Abbie thought that was the end of the adventure, but she was wrong! When a reporter asked her what she would do if she had that kind of money, Abbie shyly replied that she would try to see her idol, Justin Bieber, in concert. This story soon caught the attention of John Everets, head of the Bank of Maine, who went out of his way to ensure Abbie got her wish. He scored the entire Jacobson family tickets to Bieber’s sold out November 10 show in Boston!
