**Therra Jaramillo** 

was at a check-out line in Atlanta recently when a kind stranger stepped in to cover the cost of her groceries. She asked the man his name and he simply replied 

*"Chris"*

 \- but it wasn't just any Chris you guys. It was 

**Chris Bridges**

 or, as the rest of the world knows him, 

**Ludacris!**

Therra says she had no idea who he was at the time but was blown away by his generosity. *"He turned to me and he said, 'I got this.' And I looked at him and he said, 'All of this, don't put anything back.'"*

The rap star, actor and philanthropist couldn't have stepped in at a better time.

In a series of social media posts, Therra explains that she has been struggling emotionally, physically and financially after losing her husband to brain cancer a few years ago. That she's been struggling since losing her mother to Hurricane Katrina. That she couldn't really afford to shop at WholeFoods and was only there because a kind friend had given her a gift voucher. That she was buying food for her rescue animals but the gift voucher didn't quite cover the costs. That life has been *"verrry rough."* 

As she so perfectly puts it, "w*hat Ludacris had no way of knowing is that his quiet kindness and generous gesture came at a moment when my candle was out."*

This isn't the first time **Ludacris** has been spreading the love. He is the founder of [**The Ludacris Foundation**](http://ludacrisfoundation.org/?ref=celebritykind.ghost.io) which is all about inspriring youth to live their dreams through educational programs, career advice, nutrition and health programs as well as providing food baskets to families in need.

*Be like Ludacris y'all!*
