When a person's life will change due to social media, nothing can be said. Something similar happened with a person living in America. This person used to walk 27 kilometers daily to go to work. However, when a person caught sight of this person, his luck changed.

Deontay Franklin, 20, lives in Oklahoma. He works as a cook at Buffalo Wild Wings. Since Franklin did not have any means of transport, he had to walk about 13 kilometers to reach his place of work.

Franklin used to leave his house three hours earlier because of this. In a conversation with Fox News, Franklin said, "I don't care if I'm tired or not. I had to push myself constantly because I didn't want to fall in the eyes of my family members. I have never missed a shift.

 

Franklin said that I get inspiration from my mother to walk every day. She passed away when I was 16. He had hepatitis C. Things have been very difficult for me since his death but my efforts are continuing.

Last week, Franklin was seen walking down the street by a man named Michael Lynn. Seeing Franklin in the hot sun, Michael gave him a lift in his car. After this there was a conversation between the two and after learning about Franklin's situation, Michael decided to help him.

Michael shared this cook's story on Facebook. After this this post was seen by Kerry Collins. Carey's husband is the founder of a biker charity group. When Kerry learned that this man was from Oklahoma, he helped Franklin with the help of his group.

Due to Kerry's efforts, this charity biker group gifted her a bicycle so that she would not have to walk to get to work. Apart from this, a Go Fund Me page has also been created for Franklin and so far many people have donated on this page.

So far 47 thousand dollars i.e. about 35 lakh rupees have been raised on this page of Franklin. Franklin is currently studying welding. He has already said that he will pay his fees with the help of this money. Now he has to get his driving license also.
