The majority of us are aware that Tom Selleck is a man with moral principles and compassion. It appears
like Selleck went above and above to make the end of last year special for one fortunate server, for those who aren’t
familiar with the on-screen legend or for those who need a refresher. Most people are aware of how severely the Corona outbreak affected the restaurant industry.
Businesses that remained in operation fought valiantly to survive while many were forced to close and fire staff.
As a result, a program called ‘Tip Challenge’was introduced to help restaurant personnel in 2020.
The custom became well-known
after stars like Donnie Wahlberg paid $35.27 at one of his favorite eateries in Massachusetts and left a $2,020 tip.
It’s also important to note that Donnie didn’t make a big deal out of his hefty tip; instead, the restaurant made it known.
Tom Selleck, Donnie’s buddy and employee, seems to have had some influence, though.
Towards the end of 2020, the Blue Bloods actor reportedly gave a server a $2,020 tip when they were having lunch in a New York restaurant.
Donnie Wahlberg, Tom Selleck’s Blue Bloods co-star, tweeted about Tom’s charitable act: ‘I found out that my TV dad, Tom Selleck,
has generously accepted the #2020TipChallenge at Elios Upper East Side!’ ‘Dad, I love you.’
Donnie,
who received the tip from a different source, never heard from Selleck about it. Tom never brought it up to me,
he says. Since he did it, we have filmed three dinner sequences for ‘Blue Bloods,’ but he has never told me.
Tom wrote to his lucky waiter, ‘For Elios, I am honoring my friend Donnie Wahlberg’s ‘tip challenge’
with my sincere hope for a better 2020.’ Tom wanted to match his friend’s deed of goodwill. I appreciate it very much.
I don’t know about you, but I believe this is the news I was hoping to hear today.
This year has seen a strange transformation of the world, but we must not lose hope as long as we uphold our beliefs and keep in mind that we will come out stronger on the other side.
Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg are greatly appreciated. We should all follow your example of generosity. Tom and Donnie deserve more blessings for their kindness and charity.
