If you saw a soldier struggling to buy diapers, formula, and food for his family, would you step in to help?
As part of a social experiment, ABC New’s What Would You Do segment placed two actors inside a grocery store check-out line to see what strangers at a San Antonio supermarket would do when they say a struggling veteran. When the soldier goes to pay for the groceries for his baby and family, the cashier breaks the news that he doesn’t have enough money to pay.
The soldier is ready to pay, but when he hears the price of everything on his list, he tells the cashier he’s been having trouble supporting his family and keeping a job since returning from duty.
Surprisingly, strangers stepped up to offer him any extra cash they had to help cover the difference. Even customers who were struggling to pay for their own food stepped up to help.
This man understood what it was like to go through a tough time, and let the soldier keep the change from the $20 dollars he gave towards his groceries and told him to take it a day at a time.
Watch the entire video below to see what these strangers do when they see a soldier struggling to care for his family.
