I'm always happy to see people like this, but it's so terribly sad that people can't afford things like pajamas

Yeah, it really bums me out that it was necessary in the first place but I'm glad this man is getting some attention for his kindness. We need all the kind people we can get in the education system and that includes auxiliary roles like bus drivers, cafeteria workers, crossing guards, and janitorial staff. They're all playing an important part in shaping future generations and small gestures like this do make a real difference.

According to the article the kid had pajamas but weren't clean because the family didn't have a washer&dryer in their home
