Indiana Pizza Driver's $2 Tip Sparks Viral Fundraiser After Snowstorm Delivery

A police officer's TikTok video and GoFundMe campaign raised over $16,000 for a delivery driver who walked half a mile in dangerous conditions to complete an order.

Connor Stephanoff, a Rock Star Pizza delivery driver in Indiana, braved a snowstorm and walked half a mile to deliver a $40 pizza order after a school bus crash blocked the road.
Despite his dedication, Stephanoff received only a $2 tip from a customer in an affluent neighborhood, prompting outrage online.
Avon Police Lieutenant Richard Craig, who witnessed Stephanoff's efforts, gave him $15 from his wallet and shared the story on TikTok, calling it a display of rare work ethic.
Craig launched a GoFundMe campaign with an initial goal of $500, which quickly went viral and raised over $16,000 by Saturday morning.
Stephanoff expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support, while his employer praised his commitment and emphasized the importance of kindness in challenging times.
