DoorDash Dale
Donation protected
Hi, I wanted to share my experience with DoorDash and a remarkable person named Dale. I received a notification that my DoorDash order had been delivered, so I opened the door, but there was no food in sight. However, I noticed a small white car and an elderly gentleman getting out with a cane.
In my flustered state, I sprinted to the car to retrieve my food, trying to wrap my head around the fact that an elderly man with a cane was delivering for DoorDash. I quickly ran back inside to drop off my food and grabbed some cash from my purse, waving my arms to signal him not to leave.
I then took to Facebook to search for "Dale, who drives for DoorDash and delivered our Tacos 4 Life this afternoon." Fortunately, Facebook worked its magic!
What I didn’t realize was that Dale had already found my post and left a letter on our vehicle. He is 76 years old, a Vietnam veteran, a born-again Christian, and he delivers for DoorDash seven days a week, ten hours a day to pay for a proper funeral.
I am raising money to help Dale live comfortably instead of working tirelessly delivering food. Once we sit down to set up a GoFundMe, Dale will be the beneficiary. Alternatively, I may withdraw the cash and put it into a bank account that only he can access.
