A small act of kindness from Middletown’s Kathy Ouma has gone viral, as local Amazon delivery driver Kareem Earl Reed III was caught on her security camera doing a happy dance after discovering free snacks on the porch with a sign inviting drivers to help themselves.

The footage has made an impact, with people all over the world proclaiming their intention to share snacks with their delivery drivers this holiday season in the hopes of eliciting similar joy.
And already, not surprisingly, there are suggestions for making Pinterest-worthy delivery driver snack signs and color-coordinated baskets of treats, because the internet is a perpetual contest for cuteness domination:

Apparently it’s not all talk — delivery drivers are reporting snack hauls since the video, which was first uploaded to Facebook on Dec. 2, went viral:
I sent that video of the amazon driver dancing after getting snacks to my brother who’s a delivery man for amazon and called me just to show me all the snacks he got from today 😂😂
