Making his mark in the spotlight, Steve Harvey joins Ellen DeGeneres and Oprah as one of many compassionate celebrities who are devoted to serving others. His generous heart is continuously on display, reaffirming that he has a genuine and kindhearted nature.
“Steve, I’m terminally ill. I’ve got three months to live, and because of my illness, I can’t get insurance. I need this money for my family.”
As one of the participants in Family Feud, Steve took time in between takes to share personal stories with his audience. On one particular episode, he decided to relate something that occurred during a show taping – an experience only a few have had the pleasure of being part of!
For years, the competitive game show Family Feud has been a captivating fan favorite. Two sets of families face off in an effort to answer survey questions accurately based on responses from 100 random members of the public. Those who come out victorious are rewarded with incredible prizes and hefty cash bonuses!
Every individual that enters a game show like Family Feud is focused on their victory, yet no one compares to this man’s dedication. Sure enough, all contestants seek the prize money for various reasons; be it college tuition of their children or starting up an enterprise – but why does he intend to win so much? His motivation stands alone from the rest as his purpose lies in something more meaningful than monetary gain.
When Steve Harvey began hosting Family Feud in 2010, he revolutionized the way hosts interacted with contestants. He made it a point to get to know each person on the show and create an engaging atmosphere for viewers. From his humorous comments to unexpected surprises, no one was ready for this host’s unique approach – not even those watching from home!
Steve remembered the contestant who was visibly drenched in sweat, to the point where he had to change his shirt during filming. Steve attempted to make light of it with a joke but noticed something more serious beneath the surface; this man had been playing for three days and still hadn’t won any money.
“He was just a wreck,” Steve stated. He stood out from the other contestants that appeared on the show, there was no denying it.
At long last, the team captain triumphantly won a whopping $20,000!
As soon as the man was announced winner, an unexpected reaction arose – instead of rejoicing in relation, he abruptly crumpled to his knees and wept unrestrainedly. Steve was taken aback; usually, when a contestant prevails they would be ecstatic but this man’s response was unlike anything he had seen before. The sight of him crying uncontrollably remained etched into Steve’s memory ever since.
Steve Harvey’s curiosity grew as he expressed his profound joy at being the winner of such an incredible prize. This is when the man said, “Steve, I am terminally ill.” He mentioned that he had a mere three months left on his clock. Since his condition prevented him from receiving medical insurance, the winnings were intended to be used for the benefit of his loved ones.
Steve was astounded by the man’s ironclad determination and his relentless ambition to succeed, not only for himself but also for those he loves. He is aware that time is limited yet still devotes thought to his family’s future prosperity.
Consequently, Steve made the generous decision to bestow an additional $25,000!
Steve Harvey shows his incredible generosity by personally donating this money. This act of kindness is sure to go a long way!
