Cassandra Clover, a mother from West Michigan, was moved to tears by a random act of kindness.

Her daughter, Isabell, was born six weeks early and weighed just 3 pounds. Because of this, Isabell needs a special, expensive formula designed for premature infants.

"The cost of formula these days is so much," Cassandra told 13 On Your Side. "Especially this one, since it's technically for the preemies. It was like $80 for three cans."

With the escalating costs, it was becoming more and more difficult for Cassandra to care for her little miracle.

During a recent shopping trip, she found a $20 bill hidden under the lid of one of the cans of formula she bought. This small gesture left her deeply touched and emotional.

"We need to tell the person, whoever did this, that we really appreciated that," Cassandra said, her voice filled with gratitude. "I kind of had, like, a little postpartum moment and I cried. This is just amazing. It just made my day."

In a world where even the smallest gestures can have the greatest impact, this act of kindness was a reminder that humanity’s goodness can emerge in unexpected ways, making a difference when it's needed most.
