El influencer canadiense, Zachery Dereniowski, conocido en redes bajo el nombre de MDMotivator, se volvió viral al realizar un gesto que transformó la vida de Brianna, una madre soltera de 32 años sin hogar de Michigan, Estados Unidos.
El encuentro entre Brienna y Zachery se produjo en la calle, donde la mujer, junto a sus hijos de 5 y 7 años, pedía dinero para pagar una noche en un hotel. Según relató el influencer, Brienna llevaba cerca de dos años sin hogar, viviendo en refugios tras dejar una "relación abusiva" y perder a sus padres.
En un primer momento, Zachery se hizo pasar por un mendigo para poner a prueba su amabilidad. Conmovida por la situación, Brienna, a pesar de sus propias carencias, compartió la comida que le habían regalado a ella y a sus hijos, y le dio una manta para que no pasara frío. El gesto conmovió a Dereniowski, quien a partir de esto, decidió lanzar una campaña para recaudar fondos y ayudar a la mujer.

Una sorpresa que transformó su vida
Tras recaudar una gran suma de dinero, Zachery sorprendió a Brienna con una serie de regalos. Le ofreció diez ofertas de empleo a tiempo completo, un servicio de guardería gratuito para sus hijos y un auto nuevo. Finalmente, la llevó con los ojos vendados a un nuevo vecindario, donde le entregó una suma de 500.000 dólares y una casa completamente amueblada. El regalo, valorado en más de 750.000 dólares, se completó con la labor de un asesor financiero, encargado de planificar el futuro de Brienna y asegurar el dinero para la educación de sus hijos y de esa manera asegurar que "nunca más tenga que preocuparse por el dinero".
A través de sus redes sociales, el influencer aclaró que la casa entregada era una utilería, pensada para el video, ya que la seguridad de Brienna y sus hijos era su prioridad.
Reacciones en las redes
El generoso acto conmovió a millones de usuarios en TikTok, plataforma en la que cuenta con 23.5 millones de seguidores.
El clip de la emotiva sorpresa generó más de 100.000 comentarios en redes. Muchos usuarios celebraron la generosidad de Zachery, destacando que "este es el mejor contenido en Internet" y que "estas son las personas que lo merecen".
Por otro lado, la acción del influencer también generó un debate sobre la responsabilidad de los más ricos: "Esto es lo que los multimillonarios deberían estar haciendo con su dinero", fue uno de los comentarios más populares, mientras que otro usuario agregó que "no hay excusa para que los multimillonarios no hagan esto".
El caso de Zachery con Brienna es uno de los tantos gestos que el influyencer tiene para ayudar a personas que realmente lo necesitan. En ocasiones anteriores, ha utilizado este método, engañando a las personas sobre su situación, fingiendo haber perdido su trabajo o no haber comido, para verificar si realmente tienen un buen corazón y luego darles un regalo.
