Inside Edition reported that Spooner, who lives in Detroit, Mich., gave the $500 worth of free pizza to the Covenant House Michigan, a facility for homeless youth.

"Detroit is going through a lot of negativity," she told Inside Edition. "I wanted somewhere close to home that would be affected by my donation ... I could tell it would actually make a difference. I would actually see people who benefitted from it. They were really sweet, warm and welcoming."

WJBK reported one of the administrators at Covenant House were thankful for the gift.

"I look at young people and they believe it's very important to give back to the community," they told WJBK. "But I don't know if they would give pizza back. This was wonderful to find out that someone cared enough about these young people here at Covenant House to provide this pizza for them."
