A viral GoFundMe campaign raised more than $250,000 for 72-year-old Domino's delivery driver Barbara Gillespie after she fell while delivering a pizza in South Carolina. The fundraiser, titled "Bless You Barbara," was organized by Lacey Keighron and her family, whose doorbell camera captured the incident on February 2, 2023.
