The best part of this was the man helping. Made him feel useful and alive, and to be a man. Millions of people just like him that only need a purpose and a start. Good job all around man.
Seams like he is a good honest helper . Maybe he could help or your friends could give them and yourself a like work now and then and with your references Maybe he would get a go someplace and help get him and his wife of the street.
@@thorkinsey4793 I agree with you , so many people on the edge of being Kevin. Not trying to be political here but it sure wasn't this bad a short couple of years ago..
troubling parts is he is homeless, while playing a nearly impossible lottery. it is not an investment, yet Kevin rely on it for dreams. He probably had a decent home, but got taxed out of it or had zero retirement
@@4431charliewhen was it not like this a couple of years ago? You mean when President Obama had the country going great? It sure wasn't when that orange conman was in office! You were trying to make it political when you said a couple of years ago and you thought people wouldn't realize it! Typical!
As a member of the "transient" (homeless) community, i want to thank you for treating that gentleman with respect. So many times, we are look at/treated like we are less than human. The world needs more people like you, I think
Getting back on your feet is possible I've had a home two years now and I work for a homeless help agency doing housekeeping for a step program hotel the same one who allowed me shelter to get off the street. Good luck to you keep praying and don't give up bud....
I know. He is a hard worker and has a good character. He just needs a chance. Anyone of us watching this might have landed in the same circumstance he is in. What a cute little doggy he has.

Thanks Al for your kindness❤ This man could be homeless now, but he is a real man, a gentleman, he was ready to work for nothing, just doing the right thing !!!
This man worked harder and more efficiently than most people I’ve hired. Thank you for hiring him and paying him. He certainly didn’t expect it. And thank you for what you do!
By far the BEST video I have seen in a long time. Kevin is homeless but turned up on time, true to his word he worked with you for a few hours, and DID NOT ask or expect to be paid. Thanks to you, on this day, he had his dignity restored. He was able to return to his wife that day a proud man, with the unexpected fruits of his labour. You made a difference to many peoples lives who need to use that sidewalk, but a huge difference to Kevin and his wife. Al you are amazing, and thank You.
This video is not about the missing sidewalk or mowing. it didn't even matter. This video is about humanity, affection, respect and love for others. Congratulations man
I'd say, it is about both: A man, who many would call "useless" helping to make this place a lot safer for everyone - obviously for pedestrians, but even for drivers due to bad visibility.
Kevin is such an incredible asset to society as can easily be seen in this video. He genuinely brought himself forward and kept up with everything that was going on in this project. I pray someone with the means to give him a stable job and an opportunity to have a bigger purpose. Someone needs to hire him on and let him shine. Thank you AL for allowing this gentleman to help you to help the community.
You trusted him with your tools and everything . This day was probably the most useful and proud the dude has been in a long time. Much much much respect .
Of course he trusted him!!! Why not? Cause homeless ppl are thieves, addicts, or criminals? Most, not all but most, non homeless ppl would have "you trusted him with your tools" as their first thought. 😢
Al , sometime i think that you are not Real “! The things you do for people is unbelievable ! So nice! So kind ! and compassionate ! 👏 Great contente, you made that man very happy, and me too 🙋♀️ God is watching and blessing you 🙌💙
Dude hustled and helped. I could see him helping out on the crazy jobs and having a day feeling accomplished and make a few bucks. Thanks for giving him a chance ✊
Why doesn't code enforcement write citations to the city for allowing the sidewalks to get that bad? They should have had that cleared out long before it became impassable. If the city can't be responsible enough to maintain public sidewalks, they have zero business requiring residents to maintain their lawns. Thank you, Al and Kevin for doing the city's job for them. What a wonderful thing you've done!!
You know what, you are 💯right… That whole path between two properties was in complete violation… How can you have a sidewalk there for everyone, including the HANDICAP ACCESS on both ends!?!? I bet they missed that one instead of harassing other people in the residential neighborhood around there…👍🏾
This man helping shows us how kind humanity can be .. helping without being asked & standing out of the way of the camera as not to block the shot this is a true gentleman , never judge a book by its cover
@@michspill2001 No, I think it's on the city easement/right of way. Actually, I'm surprised a cop didn't come by and fine Al for doing unauthorized work in the city easement.
Pretty sad that the city workers doesn’t have enough pride in their town to keep things clean and mowed. You did a wonderful job. And so did your helper.
its not a matter of pride, its a matter of the cycle of money, take tax dollars to "improve" sidewalk access. don't improve side walk access, and on top of that harass, ticket, fine, penalize anyone that has to maneuver around said blocked sidewalks. mo money, mo money, mo money!!!!
It’s a shopping center so the corporations that own the center is in charge of cleaning up their property , and if that was like that up here in Philly , they’d be sued by a pedestrian’s and the township would fine them on top of.
I cannot understand the police mentality. To me they appear to be licenced thugs. The bloke who professed to be a cop. Was dressed in casual summer wear and was holding a weapon in his hand, down by his side. No badge appeared apparently, none that I could see. The so called policeman question Al about what he was doing. I'd like to ask the policeman why he is holding a weapon in his hand, WHEN he could see Al cleaning up the walkway to allow people to go to the shops and not walk on the road. Shoot first then ask questions. I have to ask the precinct's boss what in blazers type of police are they training to serve the public? Also for an off job policeman in my opinion should have called the nearest station and asked a car be sent to see what was or happening to the curb area. I might add the area was a disaster by day and certainly by night. The policeman needs to be retrained in logical assertions. To be dressed like a bum or I'll be kind, more an off duty person and carrying a pistol, loaded or not, does not give peace of mind to whom he is questioning. I want to see Al and the bloke who offered to help fix a public eye sore and definitely a traffic hazard. The local council or road authority should have been chastised about their tardiness. Al and you mate, great job. Thankfully neither of you got run over. I wish well for your helper and his wife. May something wonderful come their way. 🎉🎉🎉❤❤
That city and police should be ashamed of themselves for letting that walk get like that. All those shots of the other sidewalks were all well kept. So glad you and that gentleman were able to get it cleaned up. What a blessing to the area.
They let it get that way because they could milk it for more money to live their fat pockets with through tickets and tax hikes in the promise that it will be fixed if they somehow got another $200,000 a month.
You see were your tax dollars go. That city should be more than be ashamed of themselves. Hope the tax people see this video. This man is able to work. Someone give this homeless man a job.
For a police officer to go after a person for what he did and not contact the city to notify them of the problem and get it taken care of is unimaginable. This was a most excellent transformation sir and for the homeless gentleman to step up and help was inspiring and you giving him some cash to help out was awesome. Thanks for the video sir.
The officers probably reported it to the city or county road department. They have no authority to make them take care of the sidewalk. They were warning them because of the danger to them and drivers. She none needs to report it to the city or county commissioners.
That was a win-win! You interacted with him in a very respectful way. He wasn't pushy in wanting to help..just a genuine need for a cleared sidewalk! You're so sweet to bless him with work and finances.
You literally made that man’s day by allowing him an opportunity to feel needed. He was enjoying every moment of being there and worked his tail off to get the task done. Your kindness to him is certainly heartwarming, and every day he walks on the sidewalk now will bring him joy and happiness, knowing he made a difference! KUDOS!
This was such a "Feel Good" video on so many levels. Thank you soo much for goin' here! Awesome transformation and a powerful place inside your whole being to be a part of that change. Safe is that corner, for sure!
This is really what I think people want to see on your channel. More videos that benefit the whole community. Love to see you tackle a small community park, if possible 😊
I’m not a religious man but you are an angel, a really kind decent person that does lots for others without fanfare or reward Many blessings to you and yours
Al, I have to say, I have never seen a harder working man in my life. The pride you take in you work is the highest I have ever seen as well. Thank you for allowing that man to help you. He worked hard to keep up with you and did a damn good job. Thank you for helping him out as well I wish I wasn't living on just Social Security or I would donate to you and your work. God Bless Brother.
The homeless helper brought tears to my eyes, as well as the respect Al Bladez gave him. I don't know his story, but I assume he had a hard time in his life. Still, he's willing to help the community. What a lesson he taught.
I know you didn't really need his help, but he offered to help and you wanted him to feel useful and appreciated. You did two wonderful things, you cleaned that overgrown sidewalk and also blessed that homeless man. Thank you, Al! Love you more, dear heart!!!!
You made the old gentleman alive again. People was seeing him as a person working. Not a homeless person. Both of you worked great together. Bless both of you for making the sidewalk safe for a lot of people. No more walking in the road. Be safe out there both of you.
Thank you for treating Kevin with the respect that every loving soul deserves. You both worked hard and what a great transformation. Now Kevin and his wife and everyone else can be safe. Thank you for giving him money. People are placed in our paths to help.
Give that man a few more gigs with you he worked his tail off! Seeing him even grab the shovel tells you he took pride in helping, and then to see him move the equipment…awesome stuff. Great work Al!
The transformation along with touching the life of a homeless man were awesome. Allowing the man to work with you gave him a boost and purpose. Thank you, Al!
This was a real community service, you helped every person that walks in that area. But mostly you helped this middle aged man feel like a worth while hard working man once more. You're a rock star for all you do to help people out . May God bless you and your family..
Having been in Kevin's shoes, I can say the opportunity to work and earn your way is pretty strong. You gave him a chance to keep his dignity by accepting his offer of help, and that's one of the best things you could have done for him. The guy's a really hard worker, and I hope this video is evidence of that to a prospective employer. All the best to you both.
This was a wonderful video!. You and Kevin made the sidewalk safer for everyone. It was great to see Kevin jump in and your generosity and caring for he and his wife. Nicely done Al.
This is a very high traffic area and it's unbelievable that the city didn't clear this section for pedestrians. Pedestrians have the right of way. But you guys did a great job and a great service for the community 💯
Unfortunately, the cops are only looking at making $$$ instead of holding the land owner accountable - more so if it's the city. He treated the guy respectfully and I am sure the man appreciates what he did.
I have mix feelings about you doing this project......the local government failed to do their job (for what ever reason). You just kicked the can down the road. The problem is still there.
I’d send the city a bill for the services provided and tell them they neglected this area for so long cops where harassing people who had no choice but to walk in the streets to get around this area
That gentleman was a go getter. Thank you for letting him help you and paying him. You are a terrific man. I was very impressed with how well you worked together. There is nothing better than a hard working man.
Can you please give Kevin more appearances in your weekly videos until he gets a job.... he is respectful, polite and efficient. It would be great to see this man employed again...
THANK YOU!!!! So many homeless are overlooked like they are nothing. YOU showed him respect and kindness which in turn probably gave him a HUGE boost. And to pay him for the hard work he did was so wonderful of you. Sometimes just a little kindness goes a long way. He said that $100 would get him through a week, feel good about that.
They should been fined for all that. Thats crazy and I’m thankful you hooked him up. And I hope someone see him and hires him. He deserves it!! He’s a hard worker he expected nothing just trying to help himself so he doesn’t get harassed anymore.
You're amazing, Al...this video was so special in many ways...helped the city and this wonderful man...I hope someone that sees this will give him a job...love and prayers to all...🥰🥰
You did more for that man than you know Al. You gave him purpose and dignity. That wasn't just a hazard to pedestrians, it was a traffic hazard! Fabulous work men! Have a blessed day❤
Al thanks a million for letting the man help you. He was rolling right along with you and giving him money for helping you, topped off everything. May God bless you for all your good deeds.
That is just insane, that cops would expect ANYONE to try and walk on that absolutely obscured and blocked off sidewalk. Geez Louise! The homeless man worked hard, he was a good worker for you. Honestly, for that "small" of an area, that is one your most amazing transformations, IMO! And so sweet of you to pay him $100 for his help - Holy Hathor! You got me, I'm subscribing.
Al, you're definitely a hardworking man and an inspiration. You treated the homeless gentleman with respect and accepted his help, to include payment. We need more people like you.
You're saying someone is inspiring because they're willing to talk to someone who's homeless? That's how worthless I am, that you have to be a saint to talk to me? I'm sick of this kind of comment, people saying "oh he's such a good person he even is nice to homeless people" as though we are not worth being treated nicely and if someone is nice to us, oh they must be a good person if they are nice to THEM! There was a time when people would say, "oh, he's such a good person he's even nice to [racial word] people," but to say it now would be unacceptable. And so is saying it about us just because we don't have a place to live for a while because our job doesn't pay enough! I'm so sick of being seen as THAT WORTHLESS to everyone!!!!!!!!
That was absolutely a pleasure to watch. The transformation was incredible. You were very thorough,& meticulous. The guy that helped you was great .On a daily basis, he experiences the obstruction of the sidewalk,& roadway. Total safety hazard for everyone. Thanks again fellas for making such a difference. Much respect,& appreciation.💯❤️👏🏾💜✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
I wondered why the guy kept disappearing and it hit me. He was trying to stay out of Al's shot so he didn't unintentionally block the camera or anything. Such a sweet man to not only help but also being cognizant of the recording for us. Thank you Al for letting him lend a hand and paying him for a job well done. He did more for a stretch of sidewalk than most people do for their own yards when you come by.
The man definitely worked hard. What a shame he isn't able to find steady work for himself and his wife. Not everybody has a college degree, for pete's sake!
This is my favorite Bladez video! Wonderful job. It’s amazing how when Al does a residence, the home owners don’t lift a finger. And here’s a homeless man working up a sweat helping Al.
What a wonderful thing you did for Kevin. This video can help Kevin as proof that he is a hardworking man, like a resume. I hope you can have him on more video’s. Al you are such a wonderful human, the way you treated Kevin, asking thoughtful questions, you are a rare breed, and deserve the world. Good job
Also a wonderful thing Kevin did for Al, just a simple testament of what being human can accomplish, when we work together instead of against each other.
Hands down, this is my favorite video! Al, your kindness meter just went over the top. You gave this man much more than just money. You gave him a day of purpose purpose and you treated him with dignity. What an awesome guy this man is! And what a beautiful soul you have! 🥰😌❤️
Hi Al, this is a wonderful video and made the sidewalk accessible for everybody. My hope is whoever sees your video locally where you live and see the gentleman working hard to help you that there will be somebody out there will give him a job offer.
You gave that guy a lot more than some money. You gave him a sense of pride and purpose. And the sidewalk! The town or city where that is located, should be ashamed of allowing that to be going on for so long. Well done!
How many people these days refuse to work? Too many. Here's a homeless man offering to help you do a not so easy job. This moved me in so many ways, Al. You're an outstanding man. I wish there were more like you, Sir.
@tacomamusic Exactly. People aren't really refusing to work *any* job. They're just sick and tired of getting used and destroyed for a relative pittance compared to what they make some guy sitting in a board room somewhere not sweating, getting cussed at, or spit on but saying "we" have to tighten our belts to meet a quarterly earnings target *he* set. No more paid hour lunch breaks. No more gold watches or training from the mail room to president of the company. Now, it's layoffs and outsourcing and setting hours under 40 so you don't qualify for health insurance. Now, it's 2 people in the whole store, 8 self checkouts, and no cost savings to you, the customer. How many entry levels jobs are 0 experience? How many companies are training new people and providing a wage on which you can raise a family with one breadwinner? A lot of people are willing to work hard. Kevin's out here doing it out of the kindness of his heart, for his community, and for himself. He's fighting. Doesn't mean he should be taken advantage of when he gets back into the workforce. Doesn't mean he shouldn't be able to pass on a job that doesn't pay enough for him to keep a house. That's not refusing to work. That's just survival and common sense standards. His choosing to work for no expected money shouldn't be used as a dig along with the "Nobody wants to work" catchphrase.
Wow! What great community service. I thank you in advance on behalf of all future of all walkers and joggers for clearing this side walk. God bless you Al.
I live in Australia and very surprised that in the USA a public authority does not clear the footpath for pedestrians. Good on you for helping out for free.
There are a lot of places without sidewalks. People either have to walk in the streets or on other people's property. I would rather them walk on my property than get ran over. I just wish that a select few that do that wouldn't throw their trash in my yard. Or lit cigarette butts on the grass. To easy for a fire to start.
Rules are strange here. That exact strip of sidewalk could be just outside city limits. In a county jurisdiction. The county may not have any requirement to maintain the sidewalks. Some give the responsibility to whoever owns the adjacent land. It can get confusing. And you can guarantee if it's not theirs they won't touch it
Lots of things goes on here the outside world don't have a clue the grass isn't all that green on this side of the fence the picture is only painted that way to fool the unsuspecting bystanders
The gentleman, that helped was a hard worker. Are there social services that can give him a foot up? He deserves assistance and would put help to good use. Such a nice man!
This is SO COOL, Al! But actually, the best part of all is how this homeless man became your helper, a partner in your work. That alone made both of you have a wonderful experience. Thanks again, Al.
Amazing! It's a shame that the city lets it get to this condition. Shame on them for not maintaining a clear and safe access. So nice that the man pitched in to help. People helping people is what life is about. Well done, Al! 🎉 Sending the man and his wife good thoughts. 24:46
I’m guessing the Lord Almighty let it get that bad so Al could come across it and do what he does best and Kevin was in the right place at the right time as well. Be careful how you treat strangers. You may be entertaining angels unawares.
Awww...That's EXCELLENT. Homeless people are some of the most giving souls. What a super great project to do with those who really need the help. Love this one, Al! ❤❤❤❤
You're so right, know why? Cause all of us know what its like to do without food, shelter, love, kindness. Can't say that about all the ppl who HAVE a home. That's why you'll also see a good majority of us with pets. We take in the ones that get dumped on the street cause they're 1. too old 2. too young 3. mom had too many babies 4. they're moving??? 5. they're having a baby and don't want the dog anymore or are afraid it'll bite the baby....???? Most will see the baby as their own baby or at the least as a playmate. 6. OR just plain TIRED of it. Sadly, those same ppl look at the homeless in most of the same ways.
@karenmorrisette5027 Amen BROTHER You're absolutely right? We need more people with hearts like AL BLADES. SOME PEOPLE NEED TO JUST GIVE THEM A CHANCE.
@@teribelleau137 Gotta Agree how so many homeless people are so giving. A reality channel , John Millionaire , proves this in every vlog on utube & fb.. Greetings & all the best.
Shame on the City for not looking after this. Another great job Al and how awesome this kind man offered to help you. Dignity has been given to him and you helped him out as well.
Al you were so respectful and kind to Kevin. Thanks for the way you filmed and didn’t swing the camera. FYI: the cops didn’t Harass. They were doing their job trying to keep him safe as well as those driving by him on a busy street. He wasn’t upholding the law. He could have chosen another street or the other side. He could have contacted the city to maintain the area, but it was easier to blame others. I hope this is the season of positive change for all.
I am amazed, but also saddened that a city would allow a public sidewalk to become so neglected and overrun. I have to use a mobility wheelchair to get around my city and I have to constantly watch out for hazards of damaged, broken, and overgrown vegetation. Thank you for caring!❤
Yeah, it was obvious that it was designed also to facilitate those in wheelchairs to navigate that little curve safely. Not only did this improve the situation for those such as yourself, but I think that it was impeding the line of vision for drivers coming around that curve. On top of it all this improvement was no doubt performed using state or federal funding and then they’ve just let itdeteriorate like that
If you have mobility problems, you're lucky to find ANY sidewalk, most are broken, don't have cutaways to get on & off, end suddenly in the middle of nowherez ❤have no crosswalks, are overgriwb or there are tree roots that make them impassable. Restrooms have super heavy doors in public places - healthcare facilities are the WORST. Mobility services are extremely limited & orovate services are driven out by subsidized public services. Ramps to get on & off public transportation are a danger to everyine, they detect a standing a dult but not a small xhild or someone in a wheelchair. What Al does, es9. here, is a true gift from God for thise of us who struggle with mobility, esp. if mpbility issues are compounded by severe pain as they are with me. And the DEW has decided thebopioid crisis is solely because ofnpain oatients so while addicts shoot uo on the street & no onenhelps them get free, pain patients struggle to ger very mild pain medicine. Many could still wprk and pay taxes if they could get the paintp ease off (chronic pain never goes away fully, it just eases enough to bear). Pain also causes fatigue, which makes the pain worse in a vicious cycle. So Al, THANK YOU for this. Scouts looking for a project how about foghting for handicapped friendly sidewalks in your communities? Gather support one sidewalk at a time, get petitions signed, submit to elected officials, post on social media, get other troops involved in your area. This would be community service as well and would be inclusive of differently abled people.
In Poland when you drink beer in summer on your sidewalk you will get ticket from police because we cant drink in public places. But when winter comes you are responsible for removing ice from sidewalk and then its yours not public. Until you decide to drink beer after removing ice as then its public again
I imagine those tools and the power to operate them don’t come cheap, so I hope you’re making enough from your channel to cover everything. I also hope you have inspired a few people to do something similar. Thank you.
You have a great personality and thank you for all you do. Posting videos on top of your daily work schedule. You are a compassionate person in which the world needs more of.
You took the words right out of my mouth! Shame shame shame on the city! Thank you Al! And the homeless man that helped! You do such amazing work! 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
OMG Al- This might just be my new favorite video of yours! The compassion you have for everyone you come in contact with is remarkable. Thank you for helping Kevin make not only the area look great but also helping Kevin feel apart of the working community again! Sometimes all it takes is for one individual to give them a chance to prove that they are still alive and that they can be a valuable asset to society! Thank you Thank you Thank you! Signed from a Momma of a once lost son who was abandoned by the community and himself! ❤
This video was so inspiring to me. This just shows that there are thousands more homeless men & women that just need a little help getting back on their feet. Thanks Al for giving this hard working man a chance & purpose for that day.
Ya know what? I've been watching your channel for awhile now! And I Love watching what you do for People who are in need of your Kindness and generosity 🙏, But this one today made me a subscriber just because of the way you were SO VERY KIND AND YOUR GAVE A DAMN for all people Really Really showed through. I have been homeless before and people really don't give a rats behind anymore. You gave me Hope that there are still Amazing people in this world this horrible world 🙏🙏🙏🙏 ❤❤❤ May God Bless everything you touch . Hope you are feeling better and your daughter is doing good too!! You and your wife are such a beautiful couple. Thank you for letting me see this part of the world again....
What you did for this man is priceless. You are very special, Al. Thank you so much for your generosity and sincerity. I always look forward to your videos; I think I'm "addicted" to them. Keep up the good work. Your positivity is contagious. There are so many others doing lawncare but you are, by far, the best. Blessings to you and your family.
The best part of this was the man helping. Made him feel useful and alive, and to be a man. Millions of people just like him that only need a purpose and a start. Good job all around man.
Spot on
Spectacular job as always, looks amazing.
Men have a certain pride. They're workers and providers.
Seams like he is a good honest helper . Maybe he could help or your friends could give them and yourself a like work now and then and with your references Maybe he would get a go someplace and help get him and his wife of the street.
I agree 100%

This man could be homeless now, but he is a real man, a gentleman, he was ready to work for nothing, just doing the right thing !!!
This man worked harder and more efficiently than most people I’ve hired. Thank you for hiring him and paying him. He certainly didn’t expect it. And thank you for what you do!
I think he was hoping to get paid (how could he not?) but put trust in the goodness of someone he had just met.
money earned will be spent intelligently. money given will be wasted.
he didnt/doesnt but cool comment for the internet. Here's another like
And boy did he appreciate it!
Genial por los dos.
By far the BEST video I have seen in a long time. Kevin is homeless but turned up on time, true to his word he worked with you for a few hours, and DID NOT ask or expect to be paid. Thanks to you, on this day, he had his dignity restored. He was able to return to his wife that day a proud man, with the unexpected fruits of his labour. You made a difference to many peoples lives who need to use that sidewalk, but a huge difference to Kevin and his wife. Al you are amazing, and thank You.
This video is not about the missing sidewalk or mowing. it didn't even matter. This video is about humanity, affection, respect and love for others. Congratulations man
I'd say, it is about both: A man, who many would call "useless" helping to make this place a lot safer for everyone - obviously for pedestrians, but even for drivers due to bad visibility.
I can be about more than just one thing. It is a solid sign of how lax the city has been about maintaining it too.
well said 👍
It's both. He helped EVERYONE there not just 1 guy. And he should send a bill to the city for his public service
God bless you Al! This just fills my heart dude. ❤
Kevin is such an incredible asset to society as can easily be seen in this video. He genuinely brought himself forward and kept up with everything that was going on in this project. I pray someone with the means to give him a stable job and an opportunity to have a bigger purpose. Someone needs to hire him on and let him shine.
Thank you AL for allowing this gentleman to help you to help the community.
Can't believe the city didn't clean up that sidewalk. It was impassible.
You both did an awesome cleanup! 👍👍
How much safer it will be for all.
You trusted him with your tools and everything . This day was probably the most useful and proud the dude has been in a long time. Much much much respect .
Of course he trusted him!!! Why not? Cause homeless ppl are thieves, addicts, or criminals? Most, not all but most, non homeless ppl would have "you trusted him with your tools" as their first thought. 😢
This was a honest man. He was on time. He was so happy, Why did the police clean it.

@@GregDomeyHellsAngels81This is what's wrong with our world right here.
Al , sometime i think
that you are not Real “!
The things you do for
people is unbelievable !
So nice! So kind ! and
compassionate ! 👏
Great contente, you made
that man very happy,
and me too 🙋♀️
God is watching and
blessing you 🙌💙
Good for you for not looking down your nose at him, Al. You treated him with respect and brotherly love. All we are is all that love brings.
Dude hustled and helped. I could see him helping out on the crazy jobs and having a day feeling accomplished and make a few bucks. Thanks for giving him a chance ✊
Why doesn't code enforcement write citations to the city for allowing the sidewalks to get that bad? They should have had that cleared out long before it became impassable. If the city can't be responsible enough to maintain public sidewalks, they have zero business requiring residents to maintain their lawns. Thank you, Al and Kevin for doing the city's job for them. What a wonderful thing you've done!!
You know what, you are 💯right… That whole path between two properties was in complete violation… How can you have a sidewalk there for everyone, including the HANDICAP ACCESS on both ends!?!? I bet they missed that one instead of harassing other people in the residential neighborhood around there…👍🏾
EXACTLY!!
It Looks like Sanford Florida next to the Hospital. But the Lake Monroe road is very Pretty right next to it. SMH
@Nana...had the city been cited they would have claimed 'qualified immunity" just like the cops do!
Shame on the city’s neglect. Great job.
You’re a real one for letting him help you, you made his day. You can tell he felt so good about helping you. Good job AB!!!
This man helping shows us how kind humanity can be .. helping without being asked & standing out of the way of the camera as not to block the shot this is a true gentleman , never judge a book by its cover
It's disgusting how the city let that sidewalk get so unusable. Great job guys!
. . . but the local constabulary had the time and money to waist harassing a pedal-destrian !
They mentioned Wal-Mart, it was probably their sidewalk.
@@michspill2001 It looked like it was on a roadway. Walmart wouldn't have sidewalks.
@@michspill2001 No, I think it's on the city easement/right of way. Actually, I'm surprised a cop didn't come by and fine Al for doing unauthorized work in the city easement.
It was a beautiful job...on a beautiful sidewalk...as someone said...so much safer..❤❤
Pretty sad that the city workers doesn’t have enough pride in their town to keep things clean and mowed. You did a wonderful job. And so did your helper.
its not a matter of pride, its a matter of the cycle of money, take tax dollars to "improve" sidewalk access. don't improve side walk access, and on top of that harass, ticket, fine, penalize anyone that has to maneuver around said blocked sidewalks. mo money, mo money, mo money!!!!
The government from the mayor up to the Prez. don't care.
It’s a shopping center so the corporations that own the center is in charge of cleaning up their property , and if that was like that up here in Philly , they’d be sued by a pedestrian’s and the township would fine them on top of.
The police would rather harass the homeless ppl than make a call to the right authorities to get city workers to do their jobs! SMH
I cannot understand the police mentality. To me they appear to be licenced thugs. The bloke who professed to be a cop. Was dressed in casual summer wear and was holding a weapon in his hand, down by his side. No badge appeared apparently, none that I could see. The so called policeman question Al about what he was doing. I'd like to ask the policeman why he is holding a weapon in his hand, WHEN he could see Al cleaning up the walkway to allow people to go to the shops and not walk on the road. Shoot first then ask questions. I have to ask the precinct's boss what in blazers type of police are they training to serve the public? Also for an off job policeman in my opinion should have called the nearest station and asked a car be sent to see what was or happening to the curb area. I might add the area was a disaster by day and certainly by night. The policeman needs to be retrained in logical assertions. To be dressed like a bum or I'll be kind, more an off duty person and carrying a pistol, loaded or not, does not give peace of mind to whom he is questioning. I want to see Al and the bloke who offered to help fix a public eye sore and definitely a traffic hazard. The local council or road authority should have been chastised about their tardiness. Al and you mate, great job. Thankfully neither of you got run over. I wish well for your helper and his wife. May something wonderful come their way. 🎉🎉🎉❤❤
Very dangerous road! So kind of you to let that man help you. I bet he felt really good about it. Thank you for rewarding him! You are a good man!
Your helper was such a hard worker. Someone please give him a job. Well done Al!!
Great job including him! That’s an awful busy road to not have a sidewalk.
Accepted his help - you gave him PURPOSE. Paid him for his help - you gave him PROSPERITY.
You’re the man, Al - “a cut above the rest”!
Damn this is a dope ass comment!!!
Walmart should have taken care of the property in the first place.
Good job, Al! And, helper.
Preach brother. Purpose and prosperity... I love it. He blessed that man in a small way.
I ❤ this comment.
I agree 100% Al is Amazing!!
That city and police should be ashamed of themselves for letting that walk get like that. All those shots of the other sidewalks were all well kept. So glad you and that gentleman were able to get it cleaned up. What a blessing to the area.
They let it get that way because they could milk it for more money to live their fat pockets with through tickets and tax hikes in the promise that it will be fixed if they somehow got another $200,000 a month.
These too guys should get nice pay check from the city. Especially this guy using all of his own tools. Most definitely ! A job well done 💯
This town must be run by the Democrat's. They ruin everything !
You see were your tax dollars go. That city should be more than be ashamed of themselves. Hope the tax people see this video. This man is able to work. Someone give this homeless man a job.
Al you should get yourself a reflective shirt when you’re working in near any roadway for your safety.
I have to say, that guy was no slacker. He worked hard for the money and was a big help. Thank you for helping him.
For a police officer to go after a person for what he did and not contact the city to notify them of the problem and get it taken care of is unimaginable. This was a most excellent transformation sir and for the homeless gentleman to step up and help was inspiring and you giving him some cash to help out was awesome. Thanks for the video sir.
The officers probably reported it to the city or county road department. They have no authority to make them take care of the sidewalk. They were warning them because of the danger to them and drivers. She none needs to report it to the city or county commissioners.
Private property
I hope someone sees this and gives that guy a job. He didn't stop bless him.
good worker
That was a win-win! You interacted with him in a very respectful way. He wasn't pushy in wanting to help..just a genuine need for a cleared sidewalk! You're so sweet to bless him with work and finances.
God had a good day. To HIM be the glory.
I cried because two Good Samaritans helping each other. Thank you for sharing. Have an amazing day!
You literally made that man’s day by allowing him an opportunity to feel needed. He was enjoying every moment of being there and worked his tail off to get the task done. Your kindness to him is certainly heartwarming, and every day he walks on the sidewalk now will bring him joy and happiness, knowing he made a difference! KUDOS!
This was such a "Feel Good" video on so many levels. Thank you soo much for goin' here! Awesome transformation and a powerful place inside your whole being to be a part of that change. Safe is that corner, for sure!
❤😊
AND some great conversation with you. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR NEW FRIEND & WIFE. ❤ 😊

Awesome to give the man a chance to earn some money. Many unfortunate people like him are willing to work if just given the opportunity.
This is really what I think people want to see on your channel. More videos that benefit the whole community. Love to see you tackle a small community park, if possible 😊
I’m not a religious man but you are an angel, a really kind decent person that does lots for others without fanfare or reward
Many blessings to you and yours
Al, I have to say, I have never seen a harder working man in my life. The pride you take in you work is the highest I have ever seen as well. Thank you for allowing that man to help you. He worked hard to keep up with you and did a damn good job. Thank you for helping him out as well I wish I wasn't living on just Social Security or I would donate to you and your work. God Bless Brother.
The homeless helper brought tears to my eyes, as well as the respect Al Bladez gave him. I don't know his story, but I assume he had a hard time in his life. Still, he's willing to help the community. What a lesson he taught.
I know you didn't really need his help, but he offered to help and you wanted him to feel useful and appreciated. You did two wonderful things, you cleaned that overgrown sidewalk and also blessed that homeless man. Thank you, Al! Love you more, dear heart!!!!
Some Homeless people are also some of Gods greatest creations. They love and care for others alot as this man illustrates.
You made the old gentleman alive again. People was seeing him as a person working. Not a homeless person. Both of you worked great together. Bless both of you for making the sidewalk safe for a lot of people. No more walking in the road. Be safe out there both of you.
Thank you for treating Kevin with the respect that every loving soul deserves. You both worked hard and what a great transformation. Now Kevin and his wife and everyone else can be safe. Thank you for giving him money. People are placed in our paths to help.
And what are you doning for kevin?
@@tisketisja5528there you are! I knew there would be an idiotic comment on here somewhere.
I pray that gentleman and his wife have the best.
What a gentleman this man is. Thanks Al for letting him help and helping him out. Hopefully this opens some doors for him ❤
Give that man a few more gigs with you he worked his tail off! Seeing him even grab the shovel tells you he took pride in helping, and then to see him move the equipment…awesome stuff. Great work Al!
The transformation along with touching the life of a homeless man were awesome. Allowing the man to work with you gave him a boost and purpose. Thank you, Al!
I loved that he was helping out. He had no reason to do that. A lovely gesture.
This was a real community service, you helped every person that walks in that area. But mostly you helped this middle aged man feel like a worth while hard working man once more. You're a rock star for all you do to help people out . May God bless you and your family..
Best gift u can possibly gv him is talk him 2 get'g off the street like Va Ctr if he is a veteran,public hous'g/HUD.so many hous'g options out there.
not sure wtf is wrong with the city. the property owner should of been fined to the wazoo by that point.
Super job! Much safer! Great having the guy help out. And great that you let him. You’re a good man,Al!
Having been in Kevin's shoes, I can say the opportunity to work and earn your way is pretty strong. You gave him a chance to keep his dignity by accepting his offer of help, and that's one of the best things you could have done for him. The guy's a really hard worker, and I hope this video is evidence of that to a prospective employer. All the best to you both.
I agree with you totally.
This was a wonderful video!. You and Kevin made the sidewalk safer for everyone. It was great to see Kevin jump in and your generosity and caring for he and his wife. Nicely done Al.
Well done al! Accepting his offer to help you, letting him feel useful and helping the community. I hope things get better for he and his wife.
This is a very high traffic area and it's unbelievable that the city didn't clear this section for pedestrians. Pedestrians have the right of way. But you guys did a great job and a great service for the community 💯
Unfortunately, the cops are only looking at making $$$ instead of holding the land owner accountable - more so if it's the city.
He treated the guy respectfully and I am sure the man appreciates what he did.
I have mix feelings about you doing this project......the local government failed to do their job (for what ever reason). You just kicked the can down the road. The problem is still there.
Why wasn’t this taken care of by the City ?
What a slap in the face to this city not to maintain a sidewalk disgraceful
I’d send the city a bill for the services provided and tell them they neglected this area for so long cops where harassing people who had no choice but to walk in the streets to get around this area
That gentleman was a go getter.
Thank you for letting him help you and paying him.
You are a terrific man.
I was very impressed with how well you worked together.
There is nothing better than a hard working man.
Love the way homeless guy shows up on time to help, he is better than most.
Bless both of them.
Al isn’t homeless and I thought the helper was owner 🤔🥴❤️
Can you please give Kevin more appearances in your weekly videos until he gets a job.... he is respectful, polite and efficient. It would be great to see this man employed again...
THANK YOU!!!! So many homeless are overlooked like they are nothing. YOU showed him respect and kindness which in turn probably gave him a HUGE boost. And to pay him for the hard work he did was so wonderful of you. Sometimes just a little kindness goes a long way. He said that $100 would get him through a week, feel good about that.
Got to hand it to you, Al. You're a good man. You're making things a little better for everyone..
They should been fined for all that. Thats crazy and I’m thankful you hooked him up. And I hope someone see him and hires him. He deserves it!! He’s a hard worker he expected nothing just trying to help himself so he doesn’t get harassed anymore.
You're amazing, Al...this video was so special in many ways...helped the city and this wonderful man...I hope someone that sees this will give him a job...love and prayers to all...🥰🥰
You did more for that man than you know Al. You gave him purpose and dignity. That wasn't just a hazard to pedestrians, it was a traffic hazard! Fabulous work men! Have a blessed day❤
Ditto ✌️💜👍😁👍
Al thanks a million for letting the man help you. He was rolling right along with you and giving him money for helping you, topped off everything. May God bless you for all your good deeds.
Al Bladez. Your kindness gets me everytime. How you treated this man with respect and let him help you was so cool. Awesome job as always. Thank you
That is just insane, that cops would expect ANYONE to try and walk on that absolutely obscured and blocked off sidewalk. Geez Louise! The homeless man worked hard, he was a good worker for you. Honestly, for that "small" of an area, that is one your most amazing transformations, IMO! And so sweet of you to pay him $100 for his help - Holy Hathor! You got me, I'm subscribing.
Al you’re an honorable man. Paying the helper for assistance shows your true commitment to helping those around you.
I can imagine some of the drivers also being glad & thankful for you clearing the sidewalk! ♥
Al, you're definitely a hardworking man and an inspiration. You treated the homeless gentleman with respect and accepted his help, to include payment. We need more people like you.
Agreed 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💕
I don’t understand how this got so bad.
@@philswords6390 incompetence
You're saying someone is inspiring because they're willing to talk to someone who's homeless? That's how worthless I am, that you have to be a saint to talk to me? I'm sick of this kind of comment, people saying "oh he's such a good person he even is nice to homeless people" as though we are not worth being treated nicely and if someone is nice to us, oh they must be a good person if they are nice to THEM!
There was a time when people would say, "oh, he's such a good person he's even nice to [racial word] people," but to say it now would be unacceptable. And so is saying it about us just because we don't have a place to live for a while because our job doesn't pay enough! I'm so sick of being seen as THAT WORTHLESS to everyone!!!!!!!!
That was absolutely a pleasure to watch. The transformation was incredible. You were very thorough,& meticulous. The guy that helped you was great .On a daily basis, he experiences the obstruction of the sidewalk,& roadway. Total safety hazard for everyone. Thanks again fellas for making such a difference. Much respect,& appreciation.💯❤️👏🏾💜✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
I wondered why the guy kept disappearing and it hit me. He was trying to stay out of Al's shot so he didn't unintentionally block the camera or anything. Such a sweet man to not only help but also being cognizant of the recording for us. Thank you Al for letting him lend a hand and paying him for a job well done. He did more for a stretch of sidewalk than most people do for their own yards when you come by.
He was carrying away the debri, that was hoe he was helping out.
Taking trimmings to the trailer. Makes me smile seeing people work together and do good things for all people in the community.
@@AlphaMR77 tbh that is more helpful than a lot of folks realize. picking up debris and getting it out of his way was a nice gesture.
@@derekp6636Yeah, it sped up the process considerably. They had a nice little system going.
Great job done for the public, it was nice that a guy came along and helped you!
You gave someone dignity today. That was even better than clearing a sidewalk. Thank you Al.
RESPECT. THAT MAN WAS A HARD WORKER. This helped him and the community. Great job, Al.
The man definitely worked hard. What a shame he isn't able to find steady work for himself and his wife. Not everybody has a college degree, for pete's sake!
Good on you, Kevin, for helping out our man, Al Bladez, one of the kindest men on the internet. I'm glad Al could also help you out in the interim 😊
This is my favorite Bladez video! Wonderful job. It’s amazing how when Al does a residence, the home owners don’t lift a finger. And here’s a homeless man working up a sweat helping Al.
What a wonderful thing you did for Kevin. This video can help Kevin as proof that he is a hardworking man, like a resume. I hope you can have him on more video’s. Al you are such a wonderful human, the way you treated Kevin, asking thoughtful questions, you are a rare breed, and deserve the world. Good job
Also a wonderful thing Kevin did for Al, just a simple testament of what being human can accomplish, when we work together instead of against each other.
Hands down, this is my favorite video! Al, your kindness meter just went over the top. You gave this man much more than just money. You gave him a day of purpose purpose and you treated him with dignity. What an awesome guy this man is! And what a beautiful soul you have! 🥰😌❤️
The sidewalk looks great and it’s safer for all pedestrians who walk in that area. Great job Al and it’s awesome that Kevin was able to help.
Youre great😊
I think this one is my favorite, how wonderful to give that wonderful man some purpose and respect.
Hi Al, this is a wonderful video and made the sidewalk accessible for everybody. My hope is whoever sees your video locally where you live and see the gentleman working hard to help you that there will be somebody out there will give him a job offer.
You gave that guy a lot more than some money. You gave him a sense of pride and purpose. And the sidewalk! The town or city where that is located, should be ashamed of allowing that to be going on for so long. Well done!
How many people these days refuse to work? Too many. Here's a homeless man offering to help you do a not so easy job. This moved me in so many ways, Al. You're an outstanding man. I wish there were more like you, Sir.
lol many people refuse to work with crappy companies and terrible customers.. there fixed it for you.
It's hard for a homeless person to find a job without having a home address
@tacomamusic Exactly. People aren't really refusing to work *any* job. They're just sick and tired of getting used and destroyed for a relative pittance compared to what they make some guy sitting in a board room somewhere not sweating, getting cussed at, or spit on but saying "we" have to tighten our belts to meet a quarterly earnings target *he* set. No more paid hour lunch breaks. No more gold watches or training from the mail room to president of the company.
Now, it's layoffs and outsourcing and setting hours under 40 so you don't qualify for health insurance. Now, it's 2 people in the whole store, 8 self checkouts, and no cost savings to you, the customer. How many entry levels jobs are 0 experience? How many companies are training new people and providing a wage on which you can raise a family with one breadwinner?
A lot of people are willing to work hard. Kevin's out here doing it out of the kindness of his heart, for his community, and for himself. He's fighting. Doesn't mean he should be taken advantage of when he gets back into the workforce. Doesn't mean he shouldn't be able to pass on a job that doesn't pay enough for him to keep a house. That's not refusing to work. That's just survival and common sense standards. His choosing to work for no expected money shouldn't be used as a dig along with the "Nobody wants to work" catchphrase.
Wow! What great community service. I thank you in advance on behalf of all future of all walkers and joggers for clearing this side walk. God bless you Al.
Grateful to you for letting him help you. I could tell how happy he was getting paid. Nice job, AL. God bless you.🙏
I live in Australia and very surprised that in the USA a public authority does not clear the footpath for pedestrians. Good on you for helping out for free.
There are a lot of places without sidewalks. People either have to walk in the streets or on other people's property. I would rather them walk on my property than get ran over. I just wish that a select few that do that wouldn't throw their trash in my yard. Or lit cigarette butts on the grass. To easy for a fire to start.
Rules are strange here. That exact strip of sidewalk could be just outside city limits. In a county jurisdiction. The county may not have any requirement to maintain the sidewalks. Some give the responsibility to whoever owns the adjacent land. It can get confusing. And you can guarantee if it's not theirs they won't touch it
You would think Walmart would be a good neighbor and maintain it!
It’s Florida. It’s basically like a third world country located within the boundary of the USA.
Lots of things goes on here the outside world don't have a clue the grass isn't all that green on this side of the fence the picture is only painted that way to fool the unsuspecting bystanders
Kevin is awesome and isn't afraid of work. I hope and pray that his situation turns itself around and him and his wife are safe.
The gentleman, that helped was a hard worker. Are there social services
that can give him a foot up? He deserves assistance and would put help
to good use. Such a nice man!
This is SO COOL, Al!
But actually, the best part of all is how this homeless man became your helper, a partner in your work.
That alone made both of you have a wonderful experience.
Thanks again, Al.
This is awesome! You can tell helping you made him feel good about himself! Good job Al! ❤
Amazing! It's a shame that the city lets it get to this condition. Shame on them for not maintaining a clear and safe access. So nice that the man pitched in to help. People helping people is what life is about. Well done, Al! 🎉 Sending the man and his wife good thoughts. 24:46
Especially when you see the palm tree lined side walk just across the street. Makes you wonder what the difference in neighborhoods is?
I’m guessing the Lord Almighty let it get that bad so Al could come across it and do what he does best and Kevin was in the right place at the right time as well. Be careful how you treat strangers. You may be entertaining angels unawares.
Nice job Al Bladez, God blessing man. What a big difference. Thank you for all you do in the community. Thanks again
Awesome job, Brotha Bladez. Thank you for treating Mr. Kevin with dignity and respect, as well as for giving him a few dollars for helping.
Awww...That's EXCELLENT. Homeless people are some of the most giving souls. What a super great project to do with those who really need the help. Love this one, Al! ❤❤❤❤
You're so right, know why? Cause all of us know what its like to do without food, shelter, love, kindness. Can't say that about all the ppl who HAVE a home. That's why you'll also see a good majority of us with pets. We take in the ones that get dumped on the street cause they're
1. too old
2. too young
3. mom had too many babies
4. they're moving???
5. they're having a baby and don't want the dog anymore or are afraid it'll bite the baby....???? Most will see the baby as their own baby or at the least as a playmate.
6. OR just plain TIRED of it.
Sadly, those same ppl look at the homeless in most of the same ways.
@@karenmorrisette5027 Agree 100% . Been there in a life long ago. Sounds like you have too. God Bless. 💜

@@teribelleau137 Gotta Agree how so many homeless people are so giving.
A reality channel , John Millionaire , proves this in every vlog on utube & fb..
Greetings & all the best.
Shame on the City for not looking after this. Another great job Al and how awesome this kind man offered to help you. Dignity has been given to him and you helped him out as well.
For those that get tickets they should be taken up with the city for not maintaining sidewalks
Loved watching this transformation. I actually said a prayer for both of you. God bless.
Al you were so respectful and kind to Kevin. Thanks for the way you filmed and didn’t swing the camera. FYI: the cops didn’t Harass. They were doing their job trying to keep him safe as well as those driving by him on a busy street. He wasn’t upholding the law. He could have chosen another street or the other side. He could have contacted the city to maintain the area, but it was easier to blame others. I hope this is the season of positive change for all.
I am amazed, but also saddened that a city would allow a public sidewalk to become so neglected and overrun. I have to use a mobility wheelchair to get around my city and I have to constantly watch out for hazards of damaged, broken, and overgrown vegetation.
Thank you for caring!❤
Yeah, it was obvious that it was designed also to facilitate those in wheelchairs to navigate that little curve safely. Not only did this improve the situation for those such as yourself, but I think that it was impeding the line of vision for drivers coming around that curve. On top of it all this improvement was no doubt performed using state or federal funding and then they’ve just let itdeteriorate like that
🙏 Good job a very good job 💯👍❣️
Love your work
If you have mobility problems, you're lucky to find ANY sidewalk, most are broken, don't have cutaways to get on & off, end suddenly in the middle of nowherez ❤have no crosswalks, are overgriwb or there are tree roots that make them impassable.
Restrooms have super heavy doors in public places - healthcare facilities are the WORST.
Mobility services are extremely limited & orovate services are driven out by subsidized public services. Ramps to get on & off public transportation are a danger to everyine, they detect a standing a dult but not a small xhild or someone in a wheelchair.
What Al does, es9. here, is a true gift from God for thise of us who struggle with mobility, esp. if mpbility issues are compounded by severe pain as they are with me. And the DEW has decided thebopioid crisis is solely because ofnpain oatients so while addicts shoot uo on the street & no onenhelps them get free, pain patients struggle to ger very mild pain medicine. Many could still wprk and pay taxes if they could get the paintp ease off (chronic pain never goes away fully, it just eases enough to bear). Pain also causes fatigue, which makes the pain worse in a vicious cycle.
So Al, THANK YOU for this.
Scouts looking for a project how about foghting for handicapped friendly sidewalks in your communities? Gather support one sidewalk at a time, get petitions signed, submit to elected officials, post on social media, get other troops involved in your area. This would be community service as well and would be inclusive of differently abled people.
In Poland when you drink beer in summer on your sidewalk you will get ticket from police because we cant drink in public places. But when winter comes you are responsible for removing ice from sidewalk and then its yours not public. Until you decide to drink beer after removing ice as then its public again
I imagine those tools and the power to operate them don’t come cheap, so I hope you’re making enough from your channel to cover everything. I also hope you have inspired a few people to do something similar. Thank you.
Way to go Al. Helping that man feel like a human. Be Blessed 🙏🏽❤️
You have a great personality and thank you for all you do. Posting videos on top of your daily work schedule. You are a compassionate person in which the world needs more of.
That's sad when one person can do what an entire city full of officials that are supposed to be running it can't do.
And collecting your hard earned money tax dollars
Another awesome job done for the city they really should hire him put this man on there payroll 👋🤓👀😇🎚️🩵🕯️
You took the words right out of my mouth! Shame shame shame on the city! Thank you Al! And the homeless man that helped! You do such amazing work! 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
Gospel Truth!
Amen. Very true.
OMG Al- This might just be my new favorite video of yours! The compassion you have for everyone you come in contact with is remarkable. Thank you for helping Kevin make not only the area look great but also helping Kevin feel apart of the working community again! Sometimes all it takes is for one individual to give them a chance to prove that they are still alive and that they can be a valuable asset to society! Thank you Thank you Thank you! Signed from a Momma of a once lost son who was abandoned by the community and himself! ❤
This video was so inspiring to me. This just shows that there are thousands more homeless men & women that just need a little help getting back on their feet. Thanks Al for giving this hard working man a chance & purpose for that day.
Ya know what? I've been watching your channel for awhile now! And I Love watching what you do for People who are in need of your Kindness and generosity 🙏, But this one today made me a subscriber just because of the way you were SO VERY KIND AND YOUR GAVE A DAMN for all people Really Really showed through. I have been homeless before and people really don't give a rats behind anymore. You gave me Hope that there are still Amazing people in this world this horrible world 🙏🙏🙏🙏 ❤❤❤ May God Bless everything you touch . Hope you are feeling better and your daughter is doing good too!! You and your wife are such a beautiful couple.
Thank you for letting me see this part of the world again....
This is amazing. This shows that man is not afraid of work. I pray he finds a job. God bless you, Al, for all you do.
What you did for this man is priceless. You are very special, Al. Thank you so much for your generosity and sincerity. I always look forward to your videos; I think I'm "addicted" to them. Keep up the good work. Your positivity is contagious. There are so many others doing lawncare but you are, by far, the best. Blessings to you and your family.
You're an awesome individual Al, and the guy who helped you an inspiration for all of us ...
Great job..you two helped each other..It looks so much better..
