• A business owner in Florida took it upon himself to ensure that more than one hundred families in the state would have power and other utilities during the holidays.
• He donated over $7,500 to prevent utilities from being disconnected on past-due accounts for 114 households.
• The man did something similar last year as well, though this year he's helping far more families.

The coronavirus pandemic has been incredibly tough on just about everyone. Many people have lost their jobs or experienced other unexpected expenses that have left them very short on funds for the holidays. One Florida man decided to do what he could to make the season a little bit brighter for over a hundred local families by paying their past-due utility bills in order to prevent their services from being disconnected.

Business owner Michael Esmond of Gulf Breeze, Florida, reportedly donated north of $7,500 to the utility accounts of 114 households that had past-due balances and were at risk of being cut off. He sent holiday cards to the families letting them know they can rest a little easier and will have power and other utilities for the season of giving.
