A selfless Australian college student is being hailed a hero around the globe after the 23yrs old student has described how he took in his pregnant and homeless teenage cousin so he could care for her and her baby.



Tommy Connolly came across his 17-year-old cousin late last year, over 10 years since they had last met.

His young cousin had nowhere to live, and was illiterate and recovering from a drug addiction when she explained to Mr Connolly that she was pregnant, and her baby's father was in prison.

Mr Connolly's brother Liam has set up a crowdfunding page to help alleviate the cost of looking after the mum and tot.

Liam writes: "Both her parents were addicted to heroin, she had no clothes, no food, no shelter, and was pregnant with a child.

"Tommy doesn't tell like to tell people this but every week he puts away a little bit of money for our cousin and her baby so that eventually she will have enough to live on her own and take care of them both."

Final Verdict; if you don't take care of your people who will?
