A teacher in Alabama cried tears of joy after receiving a brand new car from one of her student’s parents.

When Courtney Adeleye, CEO and founder of The Mane Choice, learned her daughter’s teacher at Huntsville Christian Academy took multiple buses just to get to and from work every day, she knew she had to do something.

The teacher has taught both of Adeleye’s girls and “is the sweetest person you would ever want to meet,” the business leader said in an Instagram post.

Adeleye, who has been featured in Forbes for building her company from a $500 personal investment into an empire with over $25 million in annual sales, set an example for people everywhere with her definition of success.

“When you ask me to define success….this is my response! (Give to those without expectations),” Adeleye said.

She concluded, “All glory to GOD!”
