It was not just about the money she gave it was that she took the time to meet this kids and just the connection she made with that one young man was priceless.

I'm not understanding as to why people are complaining because she donated $30k. I highly doubt that this will be here last time ever making a donation to a charity! $30k is definitely a lot of money and can do a lot of good!! There are parents out there working hard to make ends meet and stretch a $1 out of $0.10. No matter how big or how small every little bit helps!

Ali brown.... thanks so much for being a down to earth rich lady...you really an angel sent from heaven....you really bring me to tears...

IF ONLY THERE WERE MORE LIKE THIS LADY ---- HOPE SHE FINDS HER PRINCE.

She has a beautiful heart.

To the people who say that 30.000 dollars isn't enough, I wish to say that this is only one part of the episode. The millionaire usually visits 3 or 4 or places during the show and gives money to all of them. So the total amount would be closer to 100.000 in total. Also, 30.000 dollars would help a lot of people. And ask yourself also, how much have you given yourself??

She has given them more then that throughout the years and still does volunteering with them.

I don't think she does it to show off, she doesn't need to. She is setting an example to other rich people to do something with their money.We need more people like this and less selfish rich guys where money and people are just numbers.

A thousands of tonnes of Kisses to Ali.. Love You Angel.. Hats Off To You

Touching my heart helping homeless she doing great and god bless you.

This is for Ali what you done giving to that homeless outreach was so so big it was so generous for a person for a person to be in your position to even get on a bicycle and go out into the streets on that beach to see the real world you have a big heart you could have been on Rodeo Drive which there's nothing wrong with that and your position God blessed you with what you have but you blessed others you really inspired me tonight and brought tears to my eyes god bless you Ali

You brought a lot of joy to Common Ground and others. Keep helping the homeless and showing them that people really do care about them.

300,000 would be 30% if she has say a million dollars. 30,000 is 3%. But to them it is hope. And that is priceless.

these r angels from heaven in human form

This woman has a great and godly heart what a sweet person no matter how much money she has God is always watching no matter what God bless Ali Brown.

That was amazing. She did a great job. Not many people do such wonderful touchy things any more. God bless you Ali Brown and Common Ground.

Sister may bless an reward you for your effort. If everybody is lke ya da world would be a better place to live...Give a helping hand to ya neighbours

That was a wonderful thing you did. God bless you. : )

This made me cry. Thank you.

I am sobbing like a baby, god bless the less fortunate.

god bless the people like her..:-)

She should start a mentoring program for some of the people they have helped

Dre, I just want to commend you for turning your life around & then giving of yourself so much. Thank you to Common Ground to setting such a wonderful example of how we should treat one another. Thank you to all of your volunteers/staff that make your organization successful! Blessings to you and those you serve!

People who make fun of ALi, think of this. Some millionaires don't even care about the homeless. She is a unselfish woman, thank you so much ALi, you changed the world

1st tym i cried in my lyf...m starting same......

I brought a homeless guy some food today... i know thats nothing compared to whatvthus woman has done but karma always catches up to you and repays you in ways you dont expect or punishes you in ways you dont expect..... treat people with respect and theyll treat you with respect

What an awesome woman. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Ali...You have a big heart and great depth...Ty for reaching out to help others...Ty so much

Dont you people realise 30K is a massive amount of money? You say the millionaire gets coverage, I say the homeless people and the community get it too

At least she gave something

This series was wonderful to watch I was homeless living on skid row with my daughter who unfortunately I had to give up to foster care so she could have a place to lay her head safely and I didn't have to worry I still am trying to get her back I got a job, a place to live, and going to school part-time. So I feel for these human beings not everyone that's homeless are on drugs, or alcoholics, some people have unfortunate events like losing their jobs, loss of a family member or home, it's sad how we are judged for our predicament or the way we look and I still include myself in it due to me being apart f it so long am I ashamed absolutely not nor am I embarrassed to say it because homelessness can happen to anyone most people in the U.S are just one paycheck away from that experience. I'm glad that there are people out here that really care and that makes me happy!!!!! I now try to help the homeless and listen to their stories and do what I can for them it made me who I am today a human being with a heart!!!!!!!

not only did she give $30,000, but she was in tears when she gave it. That was genuine, just a lot of sick people on the internet.

people calling her names for not donating more, are you fucking serious? she donated $30,000 for fuck sake. Generosity isn't proportionate to the amount of money you make. Kindness is kindness, giving is giving. I just hope she went back to visit and didn't forget about it as soon as she got home.

you doing great Ali.God bless you.

It's good to see those priceless reaction from the people when she gave the check to them. It's not the amount actually but how pure the intention is, it's something to treasure forever.

O LORD BLESS MS ALI BROWN FOR BEEN SO KIND AND NICE TO PEOPLE WHO ARE NEEDING HER HELP... BLESS HER HEART & HEALTH.. AMEN

Today I feel like dog crap (flu) and thought to myself, I just want to watch some positive stuff instead of all the negative, violent, and stupid stuff I watch... Tears man... tears.. should actually do this more often!!!!

Who cares how much she gave?!?! I bet who ever is saying "ONLY 30k" has not donated at all.

the world need more of you

She is a lady ,God will reward you in ways you do not expect,God bless

GOD BLESS YOU ALL

I wish more rich people would take even more tax write offs and help.. If I ever get there I am gonna dedicate my life to changing lives for the better.

That lady is as kind to commoners like God is kind to us

Ali does not only have a pretty face. She has beautiful heart, too. God bless.

These people were not really surprised, remember they all saw the camera man following her around and filming her meetings and interviews with them. That's why this video is possible.

the fact is that there is enough calories on this earth to feed 3 planets! and yet we have so many countless dying each year because of hunger and not having access to clean water....SMH......TAXES, INTEREST AND THE CASUAL PRINTING OF MONEY IS KILLING US AS A PEOPLE!

Ali Brown you earn so hard and even you give out 1$ you heart is pure and your tears touched so many viewers.. you rock and keep it up..

Nothing is more attractive than a woman who made it all on her own and has a giving heart

If every billionaire and millionaire and even those who earn as little as $5 an hour (I'm saying every single person the world) would come together and pitch in, there would be more than enough money for every single person in the world to get by and survive. But unfortunately, humanity is no where near that level of understanding

This woman is more of a woman than Oprah Winfrey will ever be. If only the truly really rich would band together in each State to eliminate by setting up a WORKING FUND where a huge amount of money, like 1 billion would create jobs to help the state pick up trash, fix parks ect. society would get out of the homeless situation we're in.

My Mom has done very well for herself and never once gave 30k to ANYONE! I think this lady is an angel for what she has done, maybe she is a millionaire but she is 100% self made. She knows the value of money because she worked her ass off to make a lot of it and her giving 30,000 shows how much she really cares. To anyone who has actually written a 30,000 check to charity this is not for you, only the ignorant people who say "30k isnt that much money to a rich person"

I am amazed at what you do. I have been involved with a few charitable events for the Alzheimer's association where I lived. It was something that I was fortunate enough to create and bring to life. I understand that they were events about giving, but the self reward was incredible. The feeling I got afterwards, was one of the best experiences of my life. You are continually doing something that I wish more people would do and I hope that it brings great joy to your own life. Thank you on behalf of the folks you have helped. You are a great example of how we should all behave, Sincerely, Prince Charming!!!

okay. this. is. not. a . Good. Video. To Watch. Because. It . Is. Very. Depressing. And . I'm . Not . Homeless.

Nice work... Help other God will help you....

Hi Ali Brown I didn't stop crying when I watched this programme only what say is God bless you

my heart broke when he said nobody cares!!...;(

people make mistakes, that normal but dont expect other people to solve it for you.. Im fed up with people looking at you like you owe them something... Dont be a Receiver but an achiever!

people like this only help when a camera is there. but atleast... help is help...

being loved by someone really matters...having a dad n mom really matters..

Nice Job Ali Brown. In 2014 I have been working hard a feeding the homeless or passing out blankets. I do not make much but I can see the pain out there. So I am trying to do what I can.

The desire for more money is a funny one. The moment x dollars turns into a "fair" amount of money to give without seeming "cheap" is a subjective one. There is no objective measure to say, "Ok, at this much money it is now acceptable by all people and this will not let the person who gives the money look greedy." Because of this, it tells me something about those people who say such things as, "Oh, she should have given more," as it seems they don't recognize the difference what she gave does make. Not saying those people themselves are greedy, but they may not be appreciative of what good there is in the world. Seeing the world in an overly cynical way is not a good way to live, I do it all the time so I would know, heh.

30K is better than $0. I'm sure they can do a lot with that

i hope there's a lot people like her doing that. Here in the Philippines no one ever than that, if there is, it is for the POLITICS.

Who would be sooo cruel to even thumps down this video!!!!

if she is so rich, why do she only give them 30.000 dollers then, she schuld give them 1 milion dollers.. 30.000 is nothing compair to what she got her self.

201 people have no heart

First 50 seconds told me everything, saved me 10 minutes.

If there are just two things you take away from this video, let it be that Ali is just like you and I and that Ali really does care about us! Thanks for being you Ali!

what the fuck,30k or a dollar,if its meanth from your heart then its something to be inspired with.Godbless their soul...

My car is 90,000...

Thanks for Helping of my brother God bless you sister

She gave out of a willing heart...Something is better than nothing!

I'd take out a loan and give a $30K tax deductible charitable donation away if I get to have an hour long commercial on cable tv during prime-time, advertising my services.

Nice video ! Salute to Common Ground Volunteers and Ali Brown.

Thank you...god has sent another angel to help....you are blessed

WTF 30,000 dollars???????????? Is she having a laugh????? That was more like she was laughing in their faces to show how much cash she has!! OK it was a nice gesture but COMMON 30,000 with all her millions. WTF is 30,000 guna do to help homeless people :)))) It may help for a very short time but in the end it aint guna change shit for the homeless. She could have offered a million dollars out of her millions then i might have smiled ;)

Please help my so finish his school. His dream is to become somebody in society and helping others. Thank you Miss Ali

What you did was absolutely amazing you are a n amazing person if only all millionaires was like you god bless you big heart

There lives. angels among people and some time if we are lucky we come across them. I send warm compliments from Switzerland and Maldives to Dearest Ali Brown and Common Ground Foundation. Thank you for inspiring

Nice surprise,to such a beautiful cause to help people to step up out of their circumstances and give them hope,I'd love to be mentored by someone like you.Lost everything years ago from domestic violence,been homeless and struggle to raise my kids as a single mum without child support.I want to become an entrepreneur so I can change the lives of so many people!God bless you!!!

Good people do exist a good deed like this goes a long way imagine how many got helped with that money

If only there was more people like this. Thanks so much :)

Man, that's the sweetest clean tone guitar I've ever heard O_o

If only I could help like she dose I'll make other people happy this video really made me think of the life I have know I'm thankful

That's an amazing gift to the homeless...I feel the same way towards these people, and where ever its is possible for me I always tried to help...thank u for your contribution, you make a difference....God bless.

It might be nothing for her, but it is something to Common Ground, and she's doing it to more than one charity...

If you suffered a terrible childhood, you know the profound impact on you. A child, so hopeless, not knowing what to do, totally left behind. Don't treat kids like that please.

I was never homeless but my mom was as a child to the age 20 moved to America and stated a new life and got out of being homeless she worked hard and saved up money so now she is wealthy and ow

Its nice to see there is still a few women with a heart lol

Wonderful to support the Givers... "The highest righteousness of all is for blessed souls to take hold of the hands of the helpless …" ~ Baha'i Writings

People who are millionaire dont even give a fraction of their day's time to help the needs. These millionaires like Ali Brown seriously is a true millionaire.

Last time I saw a homeless person in need, I emptied my wallet (over 200). I didn't even have a job. I just thought they needed it more than me. Was worth every penny.

For the people who have dirty comments, ATLEAST SHE GAVE !!!! it helped alot !

happiness its not about how much money do you have, its about how much of you, you can share

This was such a touching story and very amazing of her to give them any donation, let alone $30,000! **in tears** People who criticize something like this are really losers with NOTHING else better to do.
