Now this is a cheesy gift we can get behind.

Hannah Spooner, a 19-year-old Detroit resident, was delighted to discover she and her boyfriend had won a year of free pizza -- $500 worth -- after entering a raffle at Little Caesar's.

But instead of keeping the pies for themselves, they donated them to Covenant House, a nonprofit that offers shelter, classes, vocational programs and three square meals a day to homeless, runaway and at-risk youth.

Spooner told a local FOX affiliate that she always knew she'd donate the pizza if she won — even when her boyfriend asked her whether she'd keep just a couple pies for herself.

"I just know there are other people out there who have nothing," she said. "And I don't think I should be eating a year's worth of free pizza when there are people who go hungry at night."

Watch Spooner's interview with Inside Edition below.
