How a teen desperate for food ended up with a house [View all]
http://www.wsbtv.com/news/trending-now/he-looked-ashamed-hungry-and-broken-how-a-teen-desperate-for-food-ended-up-with-a-house-1/362313516A story in Memphis, Tennessee, is receiving national attention after a musician and an underprivileged teen met in the most unexpected way.
Chauncy Black, 16, walked up to a complete stranger in a Kroger parking lot. That man was Matthew Michael White.
“Something told me to go there and ask this guy if I can take his groceries to the car,” Chauncy told WHBQ.
In exchange, he asked if Matt would buy him donuts for dinner. The good Samaritan felt compelled to take the teen on a shopping spree, and that’s when they began to bond.
