Kind TNVS Driver Gives Free Rides and Goes Viral for His Good Deeds
A TNVS driver in the Philippines has been offering free rides to selected passengers, especially students and individuals receiving cancer treatment or undergoing dialysis.
Rodito “RJ” Marin Jr., 28, uses his own car as a ride-hailing driver and quietly provides this service to help lessen the daily struggles of others. His goal is simple: to make people smile, even in small ways, without expecting anything in return. For students, he understands their situation because he once worked while studying and knows how difficult it is to manage both. For patients, his concern comes from regularly meeting them during trips to hospitals, where he personally sees the challenges they face.
RJ’s way of helping is simple and respectful. When passengers insist on paying, he still finds a way to return their money digitally after the trip. Many passengers feel touched by his kindness and are surprised that such generosity still exists today. Even with rising fuel prices affecting his income, he continues what he does because he genuinely wants to help, not for any reward.
His story gained public attention after a passenger noticed a sign inside his car explaining his free ride offer. One of his passengers was Filipino actor Anthony Jennings, who appreciated his initiative. At first, RJ was unaware that his actions were being shared online. He only learned that he had gone viral when a family member saw posts about him on social media.
As more people learned about his story, many netizens praised his kindness and willingness to help. Aside from driving, RJ also works as a certified dog trainer to support his family, managing both jobs each day. His story shows that even simple acts of kindness can make a meaningful difference and inspire others, especially during challenging times.
