Žena koja je krajem marta slučajno kolima prolazila pored njega, ugledala je pored kartona koji je držao u ruci i mali zamotuljak: čivavu umotanu u ćebe. Sažalila se na beskućnika i mada je zapravo namjeravala samo da mu ponudi cigaretu, slučajni susret promijeniće mu život.
Tokom kratkog razgovora s čovjekom, za koga je saznala da se zove Ron, osjetila je potrebu da mu pomogne, ispričala je za magazin “Dodo”. Rekao joj je da je vidio vlasnicu koja je prije dva sata izbacila čivavu na ulicu i da se sažalio na životinju.
Žena nije mogla da uzme psa, ali mu je obećala da će objaviti oglas na Fejsbuku.
Njen poziv je privukao pažnju Ketlin Dalman, aktivistkinje za zaštitu životinja. Odlučila je da uzme čivavu, sve dok se ne pojavi neko ko će je usvojiti.
U znak zahvalnosti što je spasao psa, poklonila je beskućniku 50 dolara, ali on nije želio da uzme novac.
Rekao je da zna kako je to biti bez doma i da ne želi da se isto desi i psu – ispričala je Ketlin Dalman za “Dodo”.
Dalmanova je ubrzo udomila psa, ali nije mogla da zaboravi beskućnika. Posvetila mu je stranicu na sajtu za prikupljanje sredstava “GoFundMe” i do sada je sakupila 500 dolara.
Trenutak kada mu je predala novac snimila je i podijelila na Fejsbuku.
– Oči su mu zasuzile. Nije mogao da vjeruje da će ljudi učiniti tako nešto za njega. Kada sam mu uručila novac, rekao je da želi da dio novca pokloni psu, ali rekla sam mu da je novac samo za njega – ispričala je Ketlin Dalman.
UPDATE WITH RON: Met with Ron tonight to give him all the money that was donated. I wish i could have got his original reaction because he was seriously freaking out, crying, and kept saying, "Are you sure this is for me!? From who, from who!? Who would do this for me!!?? For a homeless man!!??" I told him it was from the community, giving back because they were inspired by him and want to make sure he has a happy ending just like that dog that he saved from getting hit by a car and found a good warm home for. He said multiple times people have loaded up all his belongings in a truck and drove off with it. That people usually call him horrible names, so he just couldn't believe it. He looked through the envelope like 10 times because he really couldn't believe it. He said he promises that he will not let us down!! He was like, "This man isn't sleeping on the street tonight!!!" Then the second thing he said he was going to do was to go to get a phone so he can stay connected. I have literally never seen anyone so excited in my life and shed a couple tears myself, seriously a million dollar response. He wanted to donate some of it for food for the dog, I told him we got it under control. All of you are soooo amazing. You gave him the will to fight the good fight. Keeping the go fund me up for a little bit longer in case anyone anyone wants to donate. Not every day you get to hand a homeless man $400 plus dollars, thanks everyone!

Poslije svega Ron je odlučio da nađe posao i u tu svrhu je kupio mobilni telefon.
– Sada kada ima telefon, i mi možemo da se javimo – kaže Dalmanova.
– Sada stvarno želi da nađe posao. Kao i pas, i on zaslužuje još jednu šansu u životu, piše huffingtonpost.de, a prenosi Blic.
