She said: “Just saw a girl who asked 40,000 people for £1 and she got her dream car.”
Taking note of how online communities come together, she asked her own followers to pay for her summer holiday.
She said her daughter was in need of a fun summer and she was as well since the breakdown of her relationship.
The mum continued: “Can 800 people send me £1 for a holiday so I can get out of this country.
“(It’s) to help me get over my manchild ex/baby daddy and give my daughter a fun summer.”
In the caption of the video, she posted her Revolut username so people could quickly send their cash over.
It’s not clear where the mum plans to go on her holiday, but it seemed many people were onboard for getting her there.
In just a few short days the mum has already been sent around £130 by strangers to fund her holiday.
Despite that, the selfless mum has sent some of the cash to help others in more dire situations to pass along the good karma.
The clip posted to her TikTok account @gravekittyx went viral with over 1 million views and 75k likes.
People were quick to support the mum in the comments.
One person wrote: “How much have you made?! I hope you have the best summer ever.”
“£130 so far! I’ve given back £40/50 to people in need though,” replied Kitty.
Another commented: “Can someone send me as well, I’m really struggling financially.”

Jemma Solomon, aka The Label Lady has got 5 packing tips to help you get organised for your next holiday.
1. Write a list
Think about all the essentials you need to take with you; suncream, medicine, a few games for the kids, beach towels, and write everything in one list, which you can tick off as you add it to your suitcase.
Or for complete ease, try Google’s AI app – Gemini – which will create a list for you and help you not over pack.
2. Involve your kids
Jemma said: “My girls are getting older, they’re 11 and nine, and they enjoy helping to pack. So I send them a list, and say ‘this is what you need’ and they follow the list.
“And then I give them a rucksack each – and say to them ‘you can have whatever you want in there as long as it’s not liquid’, and they can take that on the plane. And that’s their ‘home away from home’ items.”
3. Try a hack or two
She said: “I think they all work, but for different reasons – and you’ve just got to pick the right one for your trip.
“Rolling your clothes is really good to stop your clothes from getting creases. And if you’re trying to get a lot of items into your case, it’s a space saver.
“Packing cubes are great – for example, I’m going on holiday with my three kids and we’re all using the same suitcase for our clothes.
“These handy compartments let you separate your clothes, toiletries and tech into designated cubes, maximising luggage space by keeping your items compressed and neatly stacked.
“I love taking them abroad with the family and it means my kids can easily take charge of their own items once we’ve arrived.”
4. Decant beauty products
Do you really need to take full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner with you? The beauty industry has evolved so much, you can now buy shampoo bars or sheets – which are much lighter and smaller.
Or, if you’ll be popping to the shops when you’re abroad, consider buying some items when you arrive.
5. Get organised before you come home
Jemma said: “When you repack on holiday [before coming home], the trick is to separate clean from dirty clothes.
“Also pack it in some form of order – so lights, darks, colours for items that need washing, or if you wash your clothes by person in the household, piles for each person.
“Then you can put it straight into the washing machine. Do it straight away, don’t leave it.”
“The women donating is making me cry, I love to see women supporting women,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “Think I should do this for a car.”
“Money sent! Enjoy your holiday with baby girl,” claimed a fifth
Someone else added: “Done!! Have the best summer!”
