A Baton Rouge dad was at Rouse’s on Sunday with his 17-year-old son, who’s autistic and doesn’t like being out in public.  So 20-year-old employee, Jordan Taylor did something most people would think was just a small gesture. When he noticed the kid watching him stock the shelves, Jordan could tell he wanted to help…so he asked him.  For 30 minutes, Jordan showed the kid how to stock, and was really patient with him.  The kids dad got it all on video, in the footage, you canhear the dad say it’s like watching a “miracle.”

The kid’s older sister posted two videos of it on Facebook and it went VIRAL!

 

In the second video, the dad asks Jordan where he goes to school.  He says he finished high school two years ago, but hasn’t been able to start college yet.

So the sister started a GoFundMe page to help him with tuition, and people have donated over $90,000.  That total is rising, and the family should hit the 100,000 goal for Jordan very soon!!  Check out the gofundme page.
