South Africa (24 January 2022) – A Russian Blogger known only as Elena is going viral in South Africa after gifting her employee with paid school fees.
Elena’s Instagram is all Russian, but from what we understand, the mom of four currently lives in Nigeria, where she blogs about her daily life.
The blogger put a call out to her 360,000 Instagram followers after finding out that her employee couldn’t afford school fees for her daughters.
The video – which is going viral – was a thank you to everyone who donated to the campaign! And it is giving us all the feels.
“Vivian is strong! In every sense! We are women!
Thanks, everyone. Now Vivian’s daughters can go to school without any problems until the end of July – that’s two semesters.
I also bought them all the necessary textbooks, notebooks, etc., with your money.
And for the rest of the money – juices, cookies and fruits for the girls for school.”

“You need to learn how to select your thoughts just the same way you select your clothes every day. This is a power you can cultivate. If you want to control things in your life so bad, work on the mind. That's the only thing you should be trying to control.” ― Elizabeth Gilbert
