A TikTok account has transformed the seemingly mundane task of lawn maintenance into a vehicle for altruism. SB Mowing, run by Spencer, a young man dedicated to aiding those unable to manage their lawns, is gaining widespread attention for its charitable actions.
Previously featured on Good News Network, SB Mowing made headlines when Spencer discovered an injured tabby cat while mowing and subsequently raised $190,000 for a struggling cat shelter through GoFundMe. This time, his kindness reached an elderly woman named Beth, whose lawn had grown out of control.
Beth had been seeking help to tidy her yard but faced a looming $240 fine after receiving a warning from local authorities. Spencer offered his mowing services for free, stating in a video that garnered 94 million views, “I’ll do the backyard—whatever you need, and I’ll do it for free I won’t charge you a dime,” and promising to transform her yard completely.
With the job captured through a 4-minute time-lapse, Beth was visibly moved, admitting, “I cried on and off just listening to your machines.”

Spencer’s followers expressed a desire to contribute financially to ensure Beth could maintain her garden long-term. As a result, a GoFundMe campaign raised an astonishing $800,000. Spencer revealed plans to establish a trust for Beth, alongside a portion for charity, to protect her from possible exploitation. In a follow-up video, he told Beth, “They kinda fell in love with you and your story,” highlighting the community’s intent to support her newfound stability.
The wave of support left Beth overwhelmed, stating that the support felt dreamlike and beyond her comprehension.
