A father of three living in a tent selflessly donates his last $2 to a stranger at a gas station

No matter how dull things might seem, what we should never forget is that there is always light at the end of the tunnel, and that light finally came to a man with a heart of gold who was willing to sacrifice his children’s lunch for the day in order to help a complete stranger.

In the past, Sean had a high paying job as a manager. He, together with his wife and children, lived in a comfortable apartment in Oakland and life felt great until his wife got sick. Unfortunately, her diagnosis required staying at the hospital for a long time and receiving expensive treatments, which forced Sean to sell his home.

With no place to stay, Sean, who resigned from his job prior to his wife’s passing in order to be able to take care of her, ended on the streets. He and his kids moved to a tent at a tent community and struggled to make ends meet.

One day, he and the kids went to the nearest gas station to get some cheap hot-dogs for lunch. As Sean headed to the store at the station, he noticed a family in distress. Hesitant whether to approach them, he looked at them for a few seconds and decided to ask if they were in trouble.
