Students Raise Money to Send Cafeteria Worker to Disney World

Kathryn Thompson, a cafeteria worker at Elon University, touches students with her warmth and openness, but none so much as Taylor Zisholtz and Lucy Smith-Williams.

Watch her touching reaction to their surprise in this heartwarming video. As one commenter wrote on YouTube, this was my “eye shower” for the day, and it may be yours too!
