Homeless Mother Surprised with Tickets to See Daughters Compete in the Junior Olympics

Three homeless girls from New York City – Tai Sheppard, Rainn Sheppard, and Brooke Sheppard – are heading to the Junior Olympics to compete for gold. And not only that, their mother was surprised with tickets to be in the stands to watch them.
Tonia Handy, who lives in a homeless shelter with her three daughters, thought she wasn’t going to be able to afford to make the trip. However, a philanthropist contacted Handy and offered her a plane ticket.
