Woman Invites Struggling DoorDash Delivery Driver for Dinner

- When her doorbell camera captured an elderly gentleman struggling as he made a DoorDash delivery, a young woman felt compelled to share it on social media. What she didn’t expect was the outpouring of support that followed. Twenty-one-year-old Anabelle Stephens felt so sorry for the old man having to work, she says she gave him a $30 tip on a $21 order. But that was just the beginning. She launched a GoFundMe for the man, which has raised more than $74,000 for him.
I especially felt bad for the guy who recently suffered a stroke, and seeing him struggling like that is sad.
That just made me cry seeing him struggle like that....smh
but dont worry he fixed his roof and retired ;D
I know... I have been struggling with super high pain from rare nerve disorder that kept me in surgeries n ridiculously pain.. so it understood others pain

Humanity needs more people like Anabelle, but I'm also sad that humanity as a whole isn't doing more to help our elderly.
social security needs to be much more for the elderly and disabled
Concur.

Do what you can, that's how it spreads
Everyone gives the younger generations so much flack these days but look how a good-hearted 21 year old changed one man's entire life! So nice to see some happy positive news for once.

@@thatoneperson8354 Hi!
When the government won’t help the people, we the people come together and help out one another. I hope more people who want to help the elderly will start doing something just like this woman did. I saw a lot of comments about people saying they feel bad when they see elderly people working at grocery stores and other jobs, well instead of feeling bad for them, do something to help them out. Talk to them, get their story. Go change someone’s life.
Your just prolonging the problem. You can't charity your way out a systemic problem created by corporations. At the end of the day these elderly still have to work, but now beg for your charity. Where is the honor and dignity in that?
@@lextacy2008 Aye. I’m all for kindness and generosity for your fellow man, but this is a widespread systemic issue that unfortunately cannot be solved by charity efforts-a bandaid for a broken skeleton. I’m genuinely happy for the select few who got help like this man, and grateful to those who go out of their way to help them, but reforming our society is an entirely different beast
@@soysprouts AMEN
@@lextacy2008 honestly the USA has the perfect system as far as I’m aware. Social security is literally based on how much you made working and you can estimate how much you will get at any time. Need more for when you retire? Work a higher paying job invest your money plan ahead… people get like 50 years to make sure they have a good retirement but they waste it…
@@kilsnacks That only works when employers pay wages.....like they did before Reagan
As a senior, I know how it is to suddenly find yourself struggling even after working without vacations most of my life
It's pretty sad how many elderly people still have to work in the US. My mom still works, she spent her life supporting my mentally disabled sister, who NEVER was able to receive disability payments due to long bureaucratic processes I mean her claim was taking years and years and my sister already died recently before she ever got disability. Now my mom still just has to work for herself because rent is so high and she has no savings due to supporting my sister. America needs to do better to help its vulnerable citizens. And no I can't afford to support her either.
In most places in the world there’s no such thing as 401k or retirement, we should have options, these kinds of jobs will bring them back and quick bucks for those that choose.
Damn she had 70 years to make that bread and still broke huh.
did you try to help her in anyway?
@@inlinechris nice bait
Sounds like you have a pretty terrific Mom. I'm sorry that y'all have to go through this. I wish you all the best!
I was on a trip to Georgia recently, and there was an elderly lady at the local burger place, and I couldn’t even finish my food wondering “is she working because she wants to, or because she has to?” I honestly had to suppress my tears. Elderly people should not HAVE to work unless it’s an option, and they WANT to.
Go on, blame the young people and not your owners.
@@Existential_Dread ???
Most seniors retirees on Social Security can no longer live well on $1500 a month benefits and HAVE to work in order to survive.
I plan to work until the day I die
@@Existential_Dread there's always stupid replies
I went to high-school with her. She always invited the struggling over for dinner. She was known as the struggle dinner savior, or the SDS for short. I remember people would take advantage of her and only pretend to struggle so they could get free dinner. She learned how to differentiate the fake struggles from the real struggles. The funny thing is that she was struggling to differentiate between them at first so she realized she earned a free dinner herself. Anyway good to see she's still doing her thing
Wow
Lovely girl- showing such empathy for his plight
I'm struggling to tell if this was a serious comment, based on the likes it got.
YOU'RE SURE LUCKY TO HAVE MET HER , to even KNOW HER i WOULD SAY. WOW.....!!!!! 😀❤🎀.
This is not funny
This brought tears to my eyes. I can't stand seeing elderly people struggle or suffer. I'm glad they met with good people who were good enough to help them out and make things easier for them.
I feel the exact same way when I see older people working at the grocery stores. I always wish they didn’t have to work. This was extremely nice of her and what humanity is all about.
They got scamed into believing kapitalizm was good.
Sometimes they work because they’ve nothing else to do 🙁
Way to go folks!!!! This is the way
@@taro3414 u think that man that could barely get up them steps struggling to hang on to the wall with his body wants to do that lol girl
@@PROVOCATEURSK name a better system? Or right, you can’t.
Seriously though, we HAVE to do better for our elderly people. This country is so messed up...
10000000%!!!
No it’s not messed up. Read how other cultures treat their elderly. There is no government safety net. Many cultures expect the children to care for their parents. Granted if you don’t have kids it can be very lonely even if you have money. Ideal situation is to have a strong family unit.
Many Families have lost their roots. Where once generations lived together creating a long lasting foundation to build on. Now it seems the government & society has built a weaker existence - broken families, poverty, unstable economy, etc.
@@IvySnowFillyVideoswasn’t even alive for those times but I know this world is going downhill.
@@jamjam9930 ur @live now. Make a diff€n©€ in ur own fam.
Everyone’s commenting about personal experiences and how wonderful this girl is - I agree, she’s great. But as an American, I get so frustrated when I see people struggle to survive poverty, yet continue to vote against their interests. It’s sad to see our community members barely treading water - especially when they’re old. Social security is no where near enough to live. That’s what we need to be talking about. The divide between rich and poor grows almost exponentially and while we argue amongst ourselves, the wealthy and ultra wealthy line their pockets with our blood, sweat, and tears.
Jealous of success much?
@@wanaraz lmaoo this guy. No, I’m advocating for basic quality of life for my community members
He could retire in Bali and live well
I totally agree! We need to do better for the elderly. No one should have to work at this age to survive. God Bless these two.
The problem is only going to be exacerbated by low birth rates plus higher life expectancy tbh. Also the western ideal of “leaving the nest” at 18/your early 20s contributes to this because people just forget their older parents and grandparents. To fight this problem, you have to support the elderly people in your own life first.
The footage of the second guy makes me so sad. Guy is a vet. He put his life on the line for a nation but he still has to work in elderly age after a stroke.
He has the capability to get a retirement plan! Someone needs to help him get his maximum monthly payments of $3,000 stat!!!
and wear a frickin mask while he's barely able to carry that package up the stairs as it is.
@@natecarter5040 If you finished the video, I believed they did that because he retired ontop of community donations.

"That's sad that someone his age has to work at all" That is exactly how I feel. Awesome that they have now raised $113,760 for this man.
my grandma is almost 70 and door dash almost every day for living purposes and she has a bad knee so i try to help her out the most i can ❤️ this story definitely hits home
Omg :( is the situation at your home still that way :/ I hope you get into a better situation 🙁 take care Redd
Yeah foreal my grandparents 75+ and still working aint nobody help them in their whole lives fk this
My mom is 73 and she works but she got her own little business so she can take off when she wants to ,its mentally and physically keeping her going. She never liked just sitting at home
If you still work past retirement age then that's poor planning ! Not having kids helps !!
@@Former_Pastor yeah that do be true
God bless that girl, she doing her part trying to make the world a better place. We all need to start doing more acts of kindness to help promote better growth in todays society’s!
It’s hard for most people, if I try this where I live at the driver would probably pickpocket me for something, I tried leaving out water and snacks for them but one douche driver just stole them all.
I still try to be good though.

I never thought that there would come a time when simple acts of kindness and empathy could make headlines.
I'm sure they weren't kind to him just to be praised for caring for another Human.
This is heartbreaking, what seniors have to do to make ends meet. Economic justice.
I’m so happy so many people raised so much money for him ❤️ hopefully he can rest and stay home now!
Yeah but it's not enough unless he invests it in something. Once he won't have any money left, he will need to make more

Well if the guy needs money, he has to work. OK reeally, the amount raised is totally excessive.
What if he likes working though?

We need to treat our elderly better in this country. Breaks my heart.
We all need to do whatever we can to support and love one another. This was just awesome to see.
We do need to do better for our elderly and our veterans. None of them should have to struggle and a 71 year old person should not have to work 2 jobs.
He didn't save for retirement. Cause and effect.
@@mrbojangles9841 he had kids too and that sucked out his savings no doubt!
Yeh like it's that simple & easy!!!! 🤬 You have no idea of what he has done or not done, the goddam land of the free, which does not offer its citizens universal healthcare... It absolutely absurd!!
@@mrbojangles9841 how do you know this was this poor man's situation? God bless the young lady who started his Gofundme.
@@mrbojangles9841 quite a large assumption so you can act completely unempathetic to him eh? How do you know he doesn’t have a retirement savings due to some life circumstances and not because he just randomly spent all his money randomly? And to begin with, we should still be showing sympathy to those who may have been financially irresponsible as well, they’re our fellow human beings.
This is so sad. We do need to do better for our elderly.
I hope the lady in the video continues to help elderly
She must be a Republican. They're the nicest people.
@@mrbojangles9841 wrong
I use to work in a retirement home and would go the extra mile by spending time with them for a few hours just listening to their stories,when my position didn't even demand I do so. I was a dishwasher but at times whenever the food wasn't prepared in time and they had no one to take the food to the rooms of the elderly,they'd send me and I'd stay to make them feel like they mattered and it broke my heart when one of them. I kindly old woman said to me "You're the first person aside from the orderly to visit me,even my own children don't want to" 🥺
@@mrbojangles9841 why do Americans need to be political in every video. Even about doordash.
I wish I could give both of them a big hug. Thank you so much for watching over our senior citizen community.
We can learn a lot from these elderly people people who strive to persevere. I respect their willpower and humility.
Imagine if elderly people actually got paid enough from social security to be able to live. Imagine that 🤔🤔🤔
Unfortunately some dont own a home and have to pay rent.. SS isn’t supposed to be enough for all that. Thats why ppl should save for when theyre old to not worry a about money.
Or teach young people to start putting away for retirement. My 17 yr old nephew works at Mcdonalds and he puts away a little into his IRA that I helped him set up.
What ever happened to saving for retirement? Not hard at all unless you're a total loser.

Wonderful...the world need more caring people to step in n give a helping hands. They really needed help. And you did it for him.
The fact that out there people like her still exists warms my heart
Don't down play goodness. It's everywhere. More so than evil.
That's why evil is so sensational and kindness gets less air play.
The average person is decent and good. Evil is rare. That'd why when something evil happens, it will be more in your face because it's so against the norm.
Don't let it change your world views. There's always going to be more good than evil.
@Ye Ye Ok
the family taking care of the elderly suppose be a thing in every family bro...
She even stated she had taking care of her gramps too
I wouldn’t say warms my heart. This shouldn’t have existed in the first place. If anything this is pathetic and tragic that we have this happening in the first place.
Something NEEDS to change.
The world should be filled with people like you that was a really nice thing to do.
Good stuff! Glad to see humanity still exists in spite of the madness in the world!

Bless this woman for doing this. I agree 💯% that it's heartbreaking that he is still having to work. So happy she helped him so much. That's awesome! ♥️
When any one cries about how much we can’t spend to support those of us in need, remember these men.
This literally made me want to cry. This poor man shouldn't be working. I door dash everyday and I am so happy to see amazing people out there like her helping him ❤️
Wow! This is just what we should all see on You Tube! Uplifting stories of how much good we can do for our fellow man who is in need. It is just wonderful that these 2 women took the time to set up a Go Fund Me for these 2 gentlemen. The vet who had a stroke and had to make deliveries to get income just broke me! God bless these 2 women for helping them!
The world could be a much more beautiful place if we start treating our seniors better. This woman has done a really great thing. I will keep my eye out for seniors in need in my community. A lot of people don't understand how many of them don't have anyone.
I have mad respect for people who get out there and work for a living. Especially the elderly trying to make ends meet.
I’m sure they receive retirement and pensions.
Who else is crying? This is beyond amazing but I hate they had to do this in the first place.
Umm me!!
Look at how far he had to park, regardless of whether it's the car on the left or right. lol. This man's dedication to his job is admirable. Says a lot about him.
Brought me to tears. God bless these people.

Imagine if the elderly people got enough in social security.
They could if we upped contributions another 20 percent of take home pay. But that ain’t gonna fly.
Tax the rich.
They should after all,it's the reward they've earned for decades of hard work.
Actually, if the elderly didn't pay into social security, they would be better off unless they didn't work. When I was a minor, I had to pay into social security. I could have used that money elsewhere. We don't need to tax the rich: we need to lower taxes on the middle class and stop insane government spending.

It’s so sad that we as a society can’t even take care of the most vulnerable members of our community. There really has to be some safety nets to protect the elderly and ensure they have a sustainable quality of life.
