- As a kid who grew up feeling alone, helpless and having to take a deep breath every time I came home because I didn't know what was coming my way when I walked through the front door. I covered my pain with jokes at school but inside I was broken. When I hear about kids being abandoned or abused it brings back all those feelings I had when I was a kid. Here is a kid Jessie Bailey who I couldn't walk away from. With everything he's been through in his life I'm glad I could help him by giving him a 4 year scholarship to Capital University.
The school cafeteria ladies never get enough credit for being social workers. They give kids encouragement, stop future bullies, slide kids families left over food for a week. Thank you 54th Street Elementary School Los Angeles Lunch ladies.
That's why Gary Owen is one of my favorite comedians. So humble, caring, real and giving....Love this dude.
An absolute King.

Ruben Rodriguez yep no color no race just helping out

Yeah almost 7 am here in NYC - here I am....oh well...there is beauty in the world! This is the news...this is transformation!
Makes me strive to be able to do that one day
Mean we got a heart brother right there with you
Gary... you the MAN my brother..!!! This is what God wants to see happening everywhere not only is the US but around the world ... the well to do ..helping the less fortunate.. you, your family and everyone there ... will have God's abundant love and blessings plus good fortune so you'll can pay it forward ... God bless ☝️🤘🙌🏻🙏🏻
You are a awesome man Gary u have a angel Guiding you each & everyday No matter how hard thing get your angel is there Beside you Keep up the good work much 💕💕💕💕💕to u & your family 💯 Respect
Gary and his wife are the real deal. You can tell that its all from the heart. May Almighty God bless and reward them abundantly. Amen.
In spite of all of his success, Gary remains humble.
I adore an emotionally deep character driven man. Good job Kenya you won the prize my dear
I love that he referred to Kenya during the award ceremony.
Gary and his wife Kenya are good people
Well there was a “donation” that wasn’t made just to make someone look good!! It was definitely made from the heart!!!!
God bless Gary and this young man,wow,what a incredible gift. Thank you for helping mr. Owen's.
I liked Gary before this. I really love him now. Awesome.
As amazing as this video is (Gary, his wife Kenya, and Jessie)....the thought that 9 people who watched this video gave it a thumbs down breaks my heart.
I pray that whatever has harden these 9 people’s hearts or blinded these 9 people from celebrating such love will experience such love and come back to this video and unclick their thumbs down to a thumbs up as a showing that they now understand and appreciate the courage and resolve (hope) of this young man Jessie; the seed (of faith) that the girl Kristen and her mother, Ms. Shelly, the cafeteria lady planted in Jessie; the watering of that seed (charity in abundance) Gary and his wife Ms. Kenya has provided; including the blessing of that watered seed that the lady, Ms. Tracy offered to Jessie in the way of an internship at her law firm.....which is all from the foundation growing in each one of them that Good has placed in them….showing that the love of the Lord is living in each one of them. I pray that God will provide and these 9 people will accept someone feeding into them….their hope with faith of love as Jessie had fed into him along the way. Amen.
IHaveTheSoftestTouch Wow you are classy, nothing ugly or nasty, just speaking from the heart. I know you made some of us realize that actions do hurt and to think of this video as anything but positive is so crazy. Thank you..... you are a beautiful soul
Gary I love you as a comedian but your kindness and generosity has overwhelmed me... your gesture was so incredible to a student who richly deserved it... I love you and your wife (his new black stepmom)... God bless you and your family always
Always remember, even though there are people on this earth that choose to find ugly in everything, there are also people like yourself that bring out the beauty. Your comment itself is a perfect example of a seed that you have sowed so that others may be uplifted and walk away not concentrating on the negative but instead experience your uplift. God Bless.
IHaveTheSoftestTouch it's up to 14 thumbs down this world is horrible how can even one person not see the good in this video him and his wife did a good thing for a person who needed help well I hope more people watch this and get inspired to do the same on every level
Probably accidental :D
That's what you call giving back. It's not the money, its the emotions and feelings that'll make this work. Respect.
not only is he funny he is a great Man love this
That was definitely awesome! Loved, loved, loved when he said “Make your name mean something!”. That is so profound and meaningful. When all is said and done, and the dust settles, your name is all that matters...and what you have done for others.
dude got me tearing up ... gary is such a good person ...
There not another person that has the heart as this man so much class MAY GOD TRULY BLESS U
GARY OWENS
I 💘 what Gary said about PAYING HIM BACK by kicking as in life and taking on the responsibility and HONOR of being that 'somebody' for the NEXT person up.
People are so SELFISH, they don't 'get' or understand that if THEY don't KILL IT....they can't become the BLESSING that how many others desperately NEED....
I tell ppl all the time be GREEDY, be BOLD, go GET IT....you can't HELP anyone if you don't HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH....but you can't get there settling for LESS.....
Being average can't HELP anyone in ways that truly matter....
Do better than most, so you can help better than most
Gary is a bad ass. He is so humble. He is proud of who he is. Always been true to himself.
That young man may end up being one of a very few great, caring, and honest lawyer. Blessings for the Owen family. Showing that paying paying it forward is the right thing to do.
Now he gave that gift from the heart. He's so right. Make your name mean something. 20 years from now help another kid.
That internship is worth it's weight in gold. That's where he'll really learn to be a lawyer.
Exactly. Nothing compares to seeing how things work first hand. I remember my senior year of college we could do either an internship or a Capstone project. I went with the internship, which turned into a career right out of college.
That was a first class act. One of a kind. It made me proud. And as a man I was emotional as well. I applaud you and 🇺🇸 salute you 🇺🇸. A true REAL LIFE AMERICAN 🇺🇸 HERO !!!
I'm crying like a baby watching you! Gary Owen, my admiration of you and your family has skyrocketed! I hope young Mr. Bailey realizes his dream, and pays it forward. Loved this SOOO much!!
You're a great guy Gary, I did the same and the student. He did so good the school gave him a scholarship for the remaining 3 years AND gave him a scholarship for his masters.
Atta a boy Gary. Leading by example. Keep up the good work! Proud of you!
I’m crying my eyes out. You are such a wonderful man.
I love how Gary is the one bawling. He's a good man.
This guy has always made me laugh but aaaargh .....tears maaaaaate,what a man 👌
I love how Gary takes this personally what a man and show emotion like real man 👨
What a wonderful thing he has done . And to the 49 who did'nt like this , shame on you

Many people don't get it if you love people and have excess money you can bless others. God bless Gary and his wife.

You have to respect a person who doesn't forget where he came from and a wife that supports his decision.
Damn!!!!!!! What a great thing. 100% real man with a true heart.
Whoooo!!!! I am in tears! That was powerful! Love Gary!
God Bless You Gary Owens
I have loved Gary since the 1st time I saw his stand up on tv and that feeling has never wavered! This right here....this is the essence of who Gary is. He not only made his way but is passing that blessing on! My respect for him as a human being has soared a million trillion fold!! You can tell he is respectful of others and always has the best intentions but to do this? He & his family are just awesone! Congrats to the young man who got the scholarship. I know he will go far with all these folks in his corner, believing and having faith & hope in him! God bless them all & Gary, you are AWESOME!! We need to see more positive things like this on tv & in the media!!

What a blessing and a world changing, if everyone that is wealthy enough would do the same to just one kid.

Pass it on, be a decent and honest person it cost so little yet returns so much ! I'm glad to see a celebrity use his wealth and name to help someone who has had it rough but kept right on moven on ! Love and appreciation for him and his wife and prayers for all involved God bless
You Sir, Gary Owen, have my deepest respect and admiration as I was always taught that when you become successful to never forget others and to give a hand to pull them up by assisting in ways they never thought possible. Big Respect!!!!!!
Gary got me crying and laughing at the same time. Love you gary
May God continue to bless you and your family Gary because you are sharing the wealth and that is what it's all about
Gary, thank you for extending a helping hand to this young man! May GOD continue to BLESS you and Kenya!😍😍😍

I know this was 3 years ago but Gary Owen just turned into my idol. I adorn selflessness.
Wow.... genuine human being. My eyes cant help but sweat
Gary Owen is one of a kind, during my darkest times I watch him to lighten my day. I wish you and your family the best, I think this number 30 times I'm watching this video. I just adore people with a heart of gold like you.
Love Gary's jokes but his love and compassion for doing the right thing and giving this young man a good path forward is fricken awesome. Some of us dudes cry when we are happy or angry and that's ok too. Love ya GO!
Good to you Gary...may God bless you and ure family on the way forward..!!

Damn Gary! you always make me laugh...now..im crying like a baby! May God bless you and your gorgeous family. you are a great person.
Gary you are an amazing person. Thank you for inspiring young kids to stay on the right path and giving them something to look forward to.
I'm not surprised by Gary's generosity.
My husband is always telling our son, nieces and nephews that their names mean something, to never forget that, and to never tarnish it. Once its tarnished its hard to get it back.
I really love seeing people helping others so selfishly. That is what we are supposed to do, lift each other up.
Gary this is so awesome!!! You will be blessed!
You and your wife are amazing Garey!!!!! Love u guyz
To the 37 people that “Disliked” this video and voted it down. Re-evaluate your lives.
Lol. When I watched it was 54. I scrolled down the comments and read this, well said. Great post
now that's a true word......examine it closely
68
Exactly my thoughts
My issue is not that I disliked the video but that my heart was broken for the other children in the class. How many of those kids were just as deserving and overlooked? How many children came from broken homes and were neglected without the opportunity to show their true potential but were completely overlooked and disregarded? Those same teenagers then had to endure watching another student receive a full scholarship. I'm not playing favorites and I'm sure that young man deserved what he got but it still bothers me that other students had to watch while life changing opportunities were not offered to them and the universe seemed to have overlooked their needs yet again.
So proud to have you represent the 513! You are a true testament to hard work and hustle. Fill kids up with "want to." Thanks for what you do.
Wow made me cry, I have a new respect for Gary Owen as a person. I still love him as a comedian!
Yes!! You BE the change you want to see in other people.
Good guy Gary. seeing you get emotional shows exactly what your heart is. Nothing but love
I’ve always loved watching Gary! He’s made me laugh for years. But to see this other side shows just what an awesome man he is. He & his beautiful wife are amazing people to give back in this manor. May God continue to bless you, so that you may bless others!
You're the best Gary
You’re amazing Gary. Thank you
Dope, Gary has been a great comedian as well as a great family man, and now he has even become a great inspiration for many others like myself.
Amazing, simple, respectful and loving.
