Darnell Wells and Zac Sherrod, two teenagers from Memphis, recently joined forces to help out the homeless population in their city. After Wells posed a question on his Facebook account asking if anyone wanted to join him in feeding the homeless, Sherrod responded with action. The pair ended up giving out over 30 hamburgers to the homeless.
Wells usually works at The Shop in Frayser, but he wanted to do something positive for his community. He and Sherrod grabbed some clippers, collapsible outdoor chairs, and set out to cut the hair of the homeless people.
When they arrived at the location, there were only two people waiting, but by the end of their good deed, nine people had their hair cut and there were five more waiting. Wells told WREG, “We ended up giving out at least 30 burgers.”
Wells posted his good deed on Facebook, which went viral with over 10,000 shares and thousands of comments. Wells is not done with his positive contributions, however, as he wants to do something to help out local children. He said, “I’m trying to get to kids, so they know it’s people doing the right thing, and you can do something positive and help other people.”
Wells also reflected on his conversations with the homeless people as he was providing haircare. He said, “We learned so much from them. They were giving us their life stories, and how they got into the predicament they’re in — giving us lessons.”
Darnell Wells and Zac Sherrod’s selfless act serves as an inspiration to everyone to help out the community and those in need. Their story is a reminder to us all that even small acts of kindness can make a huge difference.
