Steve showed disappointment,thanked me and started to walk away.I said,“Hold on,I will figure out a way to get you an eye examination and glasses.” His face lit up a tiny bit.He had seen some of the things I have done for other people in our shelter and to me it looked like he might have a ray of hope.
I took a picture of him and posted his picture and his story in the Twitter.In about 4 days,eight people from around the world donated $25 each and one person donated $40 and I made up the rest to get him an eye exam and glasses.
Steve picked up his glasses on Wednesday:May 11th,2011.Today Steve has returned to a previous job he had in a nearby car wash.Because he now has glasses he will be able to see what he is doing while cleaning the vehicles.He is starting a second job at a pet center next week!
