Teen asks to help man with groceries, and his life changes forever


I just met the most inspiring person ever. His name is Chauncy Jones. He's a 16 year old from Memphis. He had taken the bus at 9:00 at night to get to the "rich people's Kroger" on Highland as he called it. He approached me while I was shopping for produce asking if he could help me carry my grocery bags to my car in exchange for buying him a pack of glazed donuts. This kid looked like he had been turned down 100 times. He looked ashamed, hungry and broken. In my heart I screamed a loud "yes!", but to him I just chuckled and said, "yeah dude, we'll get you some donuts"...

This boy must have a wonderful mother, he has such a great attitude! I Love people who despite their hard lives decide that they are going to have it better and are willing to work for it. I just bet he will grow up to own a business.
 
What a sweet story. I wish the young man nothing but the best.
