I repaid him for the gas, gave him a jacket, gloves, a hat, and warm socks, and I give him a few dollars every time I see him.I wish that I could do more for this selfless man, who went out of his way just to help me that day. I wasn't expecting anything in return," he told "Good Morning America." It was close to midnight and she was driving alone on I-95 when her car ran out of gas as she was on an exit ramp. "I pulled over to the side of the road as far as I could and I was going to get out and walk to the nearest gas station because it was not that far away, and that's when I met Johnny," she said. "He walked up and he said, 'Get back in the car. He told me to get back in the car and lock the doors. I'll be back.'" He says he feels like he just won the lottery and is ready for a fresh start. He is very interested in finding a job, and I believe that with a place to be able to clean up every night and get a good night’s rest, his life can get back to being normal.Truly believe that all Johnny needs is one little break. Bobbitt used $20 he had collected from panhandling that day to buy her gas. Once again, we couldn't thank all of you enough for the kindness you have shown. ABC News 
 
 His Facebook posts also detail a relationship gone wrong in 2014 and how hard it was for Bobbitt to recover. With the money, I would like to get him first and last month’s rent at an apartment, a reliable vehicle, and 4-6 months worth of expenses. The first thing on the list is a NEW Home which Johnny will own!! A few minutes later, he comes back with a red gas can.Johnny did not ask me for a dollar, and I couldn’t repay him at that moment because I didn’t have any cash, but I have been stopping by his spot for the past few weeks. With more than 12,000 people donating to Bobbitt to help him get back on his feet, many are wondering what he plans to do with the windfall. ABC News 
 
 "I want to change my life, but you know it just happened," he said. Hopefully with your help I can be the one to give it to him.Please help this man get into a home. Why not help other people in similar situations or people that are actively helping other people in different situations?"
– Just $20 changed her plight, and his life—and now a homeless man wants to help others with his sudden good fortune. Kate McClure started a GoFundMe for 34-year-old Johnny Bobbitt Jr. after the destitute veteran used his last 20 bucks on her when her car ran out of gas on a Philly interstate earlier this month. Her crowdfunding effort on Bobbitt's behalf has since surpassed $375,000, and the new friends appeared together on Good Morning America on Sunday to talk about everything that's happened since they first met, ABC News reports. "I just got her gas to help her get back on her way," Bobbitt said. "I wasn't expecting anything in return." Wearing sunglasses on GMA due to an infection in his eye from wearing his contacts too long on the streets, Bobbitt explained it can get "lonely" in his situation, but that McClure and her boyfriend, Mark D'Amico, have just treated him "like a regular person." In an interview with the BBC, Bobbitt added he's "blown away" by the generosity from McClure, D'Amico, and everyone who's donated. Per GMA, Bobbitt actually asked the couple at one point to halt the fundraiser, which they did for all of 12 minutes before people insisted they still wanted to donate. McClure is arranging to hire a lawyer and financial adviser for Bobbitt, who says he plans to offer some of the cash that's come his way to organizations that help people in need. "Everybody out there is facing some kind of struggle, so if I can touch their life, the way mine was touched, [it'd be] an amazing feeling," he said. "I want to feel the feeling on the opposite end." His sudden windfall will also help him purchase a home, per WQAD. One thing no one should expect him to splurge on, however, is a luxury vehicle. "There won't be no brand new car," he said, because buying used is "smarter."
