TikTokers have shown their love and support for a woman who was left"heartbroken"after her farm was sabotaged. Carly Burd, from Harlow, England, found the soil covered in salt and posted a touching video about the incident on TikTok.
Burd, who has Multiple Sclerosis and Lupus(多发性硬化症和狼疮), told viewers she believed someone went onto her plot of land and placed salt to destroy the work that she's put in to help feed people in need.
Last November, Burd began posting about her"A Meal on Me with Love". "I changed my garden into a place to provide those on benefits, pensioners(领养老金的人) on state pension and those on a low income free organic fruit and vegetables plus other necessities of life. They receive a large box that contains necessities plus enough food, fruit, vegetables,rice, breakfast etc. for the number of people in the household,"Bur d said. Up till now she's fed more than 1,600 people among the cost of living crisis in the UK.
After Bur d shared her heartbreak on TikTok, users began providing lots of donations,advice, and support. Burd's"A Meal on Me with Love"has been flooded with donations in light of this incident.
As of Thursday morning, Burd's GoFundMe campaign has raised £184,777 of its first£4,000 goal. "The world needs more people like you," one person wrote with a $15donation. "Your love and kindness for humanity is amazing. All of us would be so lucky to cross paths with someone like you in a time of need,"another person commented with a $10donation.
Bur d said in an update that with the help of others she was able to dig up a lot of the salt and cover it with topsoil to neutralize(中和) it. "I'm really losing my head by everyone's comments and everything,"she said. "I really do appreciate it—thank you."
