Since March 2015, almost 13,000 people have donated to single dad Carlos Morales’ GoFundMe page, and even more have been captivated by his story – including celebrities.
Carlos brought home the quadruplets in March 2015, a whole two months after they were born premature. His wife, Erica, 36-years-old at the time, died hours after she gave birth.
In 2016, the Steve Harvey show surprised Carlos with numerous gifts, including $10,000 per child from Sallie Mae to start a college savings account.
“When Steve Harvey told me that, I couldn’t believe it,” Morales says. “Everything I do is for my children and their future. Education is so important. I worry about money and this just made me feel so relieved.”
