Loving your job is an incredible feeling, especially when we spend so many hours of our day and days of our week there . . . but feeling loved and appreciated by those you work for and with is a true blessing!
Robert Reed felt that heart-warming moment of love and support from people he already cherished.
A janitor at an elementary school near Memphis, Robert has quite the trek to get to the school each day . . .
He doesn’t have a car, so Robert takes three busses AND walks about two miles each way to get to work.
Sure, he could probably get a job closer to where he lives, but he loves the school and people there, so why leave?
Recently, a teacher decided to show Robert just how much he is appreciated by kicking off a GoFundMe campaign in an effort to buy him a car.
A whole bunch of other teachers, school faculty, and parents got in on it, too, and in less than twenty four hours, the GoFundMe campaign had already raised close to $10,000!!
Last checked, the campaign has raised over FORTY-SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS!!
Robert literally fell to his knees and started sobbing from the love he felt when they told him about the campaign and buying him a car.
He shares that he already loved everyone at the school for helping him out over the years and giving him rides when it was really needed . . . adding, they’re basically like family to him!
*We’re not crying, you’re crying.*
Here’s a photo of Robert.
