<div><p>Cinderella isn't the only girl with a Fairy Godmother taking care of her. </p><p>Mercedes Edney is an aspiring esthetician and in pursuit of her dream she decided to enrol in a program at a local college. However, she is not eligible for financial aid or scholarships from the school because of the job she currently holds. </p><p>As a result, Mercedes started an online fundraiser to raise money for her tuition. She shared her YouCaring campaign on Twitter and by Friday, she had already raised about $300 of her $5,995 goal. </p><p>The campaign began to pick up steam on the social media platform and in a surprising turn of events, the rest of the funds were covered by none other than Twitter queen Chrissy Teigen! </p><p><!-- [invalid-shortcode] --></p><p>"I've seen this be your passion for such a long time now," Teigen wrote in a note that accompanied the donation. "So excited to see you fulfill your dream!"</p><p>Mercedes told NBC news that she initially thought Paypal had a glitch when she received the notification for a $5,600 donation. "I was at work, and I heard my PayPal alert go off. I saw the amount and said 'what the hell? what's wrong with PayPal?' I thought it was a glitch," she wrote.</p><p>Mercedes expressed her gratitude towards Chrissy in a Tweet and the two had an adorable exchange. </p><div><amp-twitter height="472" width="375" layout="responsive" data-tweetid="850548427587018752"></amp-twitter></div><div><amp-twitter height="472" width="375" layout="responsive" data-tweetid="850550056700620800"></amp-twitter></div><p><!-- [invalid-shortcode] --></p><div><amp-twitter height="472" width="375" layout="responsive" data-tweetid="850552199704977408"></amp-twitter></div><p>This is not the first time that Chrissy has shown her benevolent side. Back in December, the model <a href="http://people.com/style/chrissy-teigen-gives-dress-away-to-twitter-fan/">gave away a dress</a> she wore on <em>Lip Sync Battle</em> after a fan asked her for it and prior to that she <a href="https://www.buzzfeed.com/stephaniemcneal/chrissy-teigen-blender?utm_term=.ksKYVAbQQ#.toD8NAmKK">gifted</a> another fan with a new blender after tweeted about buying Chrissy's cookbook instead. </p><p>It is nice to see a popular celebrity like Chrissy occasionally help her fans out when they're in need. </p><p>What do you think of Chrissy's kind gesture? </p></div>
