Kerry Wiles’ full-time job is scientist and also a ride-share driver on the weekends. She’s a “people-person” and picked up her second job in 2018 after she was diagnosed with breast cancer – as a way to meet others and hear their stories.
Now she’s taken it a step further. With her tips she makes driving, she makes 100 PB&J sandwiches and hands them out to homeless people in her Tennessee hometown.
Now, she’s got a new best friend in the form of 24-year-old medical student Ryan Caldwell. She picked him up one day, they started a conversation and now he helps her each weekend delivering her sandwiches…and will switch over to shoes and boots for the homeless this Winter.
A single Tweet from the daughter of Texas food truck owner has led to huge surge in business.
Prior to the tweet, her father’s food truck would make about $6 a day in 12 hours.
The next morning after she tweeted, there was a LINE of customers, some of who arrived as early as 6am to help. Over one hundred customers purchased food that day and since then she has helped her dad setup an Instagram account to help his business!
