To mark Veteran's Day, Jimmy Fallon had a couple of announcements in store.
The first was that The Tonight Show would be donating $150,000 to Fisher House Foundation, a charity that "provides housing for families of military and veterans while their loved one is receiving treatment."
The second surprise, meanwhile, was even closer to home.
"Our friends at The Home Depot Foundation started a brand new contest this year called Operation Surprise, where people all across the country get to nominate a U.S. military veteran in need, and the winner gets $25,000 to go towards critical home repairs," explains Fallon in the clip above. "It's a great thing, and I'm happy to say that the winner of this year's Operation Surprise contest is here with us tonight."
Just watch the face of the winner — a veteran of the Air Force — as her name is called out. And then watch her face again when Fallon announces that the prize is actually going to be doubled to $50K.
