Homeless Man Recognizes Little Boy Begging for Alms to Pay For His Mom’s Funeral – Story of the Day

Eight-year-old David was begging outside a mall to raise money for his mother’s funeral when he noticed a homeless man staring at him. Scared, David ran away, thinking the man might be dangerous. However, the man caught up and revealed shocking news about David’s past.

David’s mother had died after a long battle with cancer, and he needed money for the funeral. “This is my mother’s money! Go away!” David screamed when the man chased him. The man, who introduced himself as Charlie, claimed to be David’s father. “I’m pretty sure I’m your father, kid,” he said, revealing he had left David’s mother when she got pregnant.

David was living alone, avoiding CPS by lying about having family. Charlie, feeling remorseful, decided to help. “Why don’t you come live with me so that I won’t be taken away?” David suggested. Charlie agreed and moved in, finding a job to support them. Together, they managed to pay for the funeral and rent, and David returned to school.

They bonded and found a way to be a family despite their difficult past. “It’s never too late to do the right thing,” Charlie reflected, embracing his new role as David’s father.
