Today, the AWESOME is in Chicago. Lavonte Harvey, a mail carrier known on his route for singing as he works, had no idea that one heartfelt gesture would change his life. In the doorbell camera footage that’s now been viewed around the world, Harvey walks up to a home and says warmly, “This is for you, Grandma,” before launching into a song. The performance was meant to brighten the day of a grandmother who had recently lost her husband of 50 years. The song lifted her spirits so much that she shared the video with her granddaughter, who shared it online with the caption, “My grandmother lost her husband of 50 years, and the mailman is her daily dose of life. You are appreciated.” Within two weeks of being posted, the clip racked up millions of views and over 10,000 comments. What started as a simple act of kindness quickly became a viral sensation. Lavonte says, “For me, singing isn’t just music,” he said. “It’s about ministry, it’s about spreading hope and joy.” While appearing on Good Morning America, Lavonte shared his gratitude for the family that helped launch an online fundraiser that allowed him to purchase a new car. When the joy of singing transforms lives,

THAT’S AWESOME
