This young man raised almost $190,000 so that the old Walmart employee could retire and not go hungry. Well done guy!
A TikToker raised $186,000 for an 81-year-old Walmart worker to pay off her mortgage and finally retire after working for the retail giant for 20 years.Devan Bonagura, 19, from New Jersey, went viral earlier this month when he shared a video of Nola Carpenter sitting in the break room during her shift at the Walmart in Hackettstown.
Life shouldn’t [be] this hard,’ he wrote in the on-screen text.
The heart-wrenching clip has been viewed more than 30 million times since it was posted on November 2. The overwhelming response from commenters led Bonagura to set up a GoFundMe to raise money for Carpenter’s retirement.
Bonagura later clarified that he was working for a third-party vendor that sells phones inside Walmart when he filmed Carpenter in the break room.
In a follow-up video, he claimed that a store manager asked him to take down both the viral clip and the fundraiser he started for her because the chain was allegedly receiving threats.
