If you read the comments on the article you will understand those tweets.

> "I don't understand why I am to give her my money."

Maybe because you are a good human being who wants to help another human being in need?

> "Why particularly her, what about the rest of customer reps at Yelp"

She's asking for help because she needs it, as much as the rest. She isn't telling you that you shouldn't help the others. She is even proposing things that would benefit all of them.

If you can help them all, great! If you can help just one, help one, either she, or any of the others. Nobody here is telling you "you should help her instead". Not even her.

And "if I help one I'm not helping the others" is no excuse to not to help anyone. Not being able to help them all is no excuse to not to help at least somebody.
