A group of students at Providence College in Rhode Island, US, managed to raise over $20,000 for their beloved security guard James.

Footage filmed by Brandon Reichert on March 6 shows the moment the students revealed how much they had raised to give James a well-earned holiday.

Overcome with emotion, the security guard dropped to his knees realising he could afford to go back to his native Nigeria.

Reichert and his friend Daniel Singh found out that James had not been home in almost 11 years and set up a GoFundMe page for the security guard.

"James has not seen his family in a long time. I along with Daniel Singh and the rest of the 4th Floor of Raymond Hall at Providence College organized a GoFundMe for our overnight security guard to pay for a trip to Nigeria," Reichert told Newsflare.
