School clothes for Raymond
Donation protected
I have a new friend through a simple act of kindness.
Saturday while sitting on my mobility scooter and trimming around my front yard with my self-propelled mower a young man of 13 years of age on a bicycle rode by and pulled in my driveway. When I asked if I could help him, he replied" I can mow your grass for you sir". I thanked him and asked how much he would charge me to just do inside my dog's fenced area. He said " nothing, I'll do it for free.". I said no, I at least have to give you $5. He smiled and said Ok. After he was finished in 5 minutes I gave him $10.
I come to find out he was riding his bike home in Maximo from football practice at Marlington High school (10 miles round trip)and his bike tire lost air around walmart..
I ordered him new tubes from Amazon and gave him a ride home. His Mom doesn't have a car. So, I told him I would pick him up Monday morning and show him how to change a intertube on his bike.
I hope to help this young man more.
Raymond Walks to church by himself . And does things for others and asks nothing in return.
A simple act of kindness by a 13 yr old sparked the goodwill within myself to reward and help this young man
I'd like to raise some funds to buy Raymond new school clothes, help with football expenses and however. Maybe getting the lawn mowers fixed that's sitting in their yard of tall grass.
Of everyone that has read Raymond's story donated just $5 it would help this thoughtful young man and his family out.
Update: It has also been brought to my attention that there are other young men, just like Raymond that also need help & organizations that need donations.
With this fund we will be able to help others as well.
PLEASE SHARE HIS STORY
GOD BLESS
