Sick Homeless Teenager at 7/11 Store Goes Viral
The heartbreaking photos of a sick homeless teenager staying in front of a 7/11 store go viral after it was posted on social media.
Nowadays, we can usually see homeless people scattered along the streets and public places begging for alms. Most of them have no home and money so they have decided to live in the streets.
Luckily, there are some good-hearted people who are willing to extend their helping hand towards less-fortunate people who really need help.
However, several homeless people do not want to beg for money or food but they are willing to accept help from kind people.
Recently, a Facebook user named Anne De Leon has shared the photos of a sick homeless teenager in front of a 7/11 store.
The homeless man has been identified as Reggie, 22 years old, and a resident of Antipolo. Reggie is already an orphan and has no home, so he decided to stay outside the convenience store.
Anne also said that the poor man has a lung problem and does not beg for money but he is willing to accept alms.
Here is the full story:
