An elderly man who sells Mexican Popsicle's can take a break after two strangers raise money in his honor. Joel Cervantas Macias first saw 89-year-old street vendor, Fidencio Sanchez, pushing his cart and snapped a photo of the heartbreaking scene. The photo inspired more than seven thousand people to donate money on a GoFundMe page, surpassing Macias' goal of $3,000. When Macias told Sanchez about the community's outpouring of love, he says the man and his wife teared up in shock. Are you familiar with this story?
