Zachery drew a house and noted that he needed somewhere to stay since he was about to be thrown out.

Zachery gave him $500 (N841,000) and also opened a GoFundMe account to help Kunle settle his bills.

Zachery said:

"Kunle is an international student from Nigeria with a dream of making his recently deceased father proud. Kunle is a Masters student, 4 days away from being evicted from his apartment and unable to receive any additional support, here on his own.
"Although Kunle is financially in a very tough spot, when given the chance to either receive the $500 for rent or give a laptop away to another deserving stranger, he still persisted on blessing a stranger — telling me that it is always better to give than receive.
"Let's all come together and show Kunle the power of the internet and bless him. 100% of the funds raised will go to Kunle’s school expenses and rent, to help him get on his feet. Be kind and love always."
