Students at James Madison High School in Vienna, Virginia, raised more than $20,000 and then surprised their school janitor with his dream car — a cherry-red Jeep Wrangler — this week.

Francis Apraku was overwhelmed with emotion when the students presented him with the gift on Sept. 9, according to videos shared on social media.
Apraku, who came to the U.S. a few years ago, leaving behind family and friends, was moved by the gesture from students who described him as always kind and friendly.
The students started a GoFundMe page after learning Apraku had long wished to own a Jeep Wrangler but thought he would never be able to afford one.
