Feb 27, 2019 by apost team

We've all experienced the struggle of saving money for something we really need. The moment we have enough money to buy what we need makes all the hard work worth it.

This was an experience that Kea Senegal, restaurant employee, was all too familiar with. According to WFMY, A dishwasher for Ruffino's on the River, Senegal worked hard until he was able to buy a new car that he was going to use for his family. 

However, just as Senegal started to break in his new car, someone stole it! Without any form of transportation for himself or his family, Senegal was stuck. This is when his fellow team members at Ruffino's knew that it was time to step in.

Chris Muffoletto, general manager of Ruffino's, told WFMY:

"He had saved up for months to buy a car for his family. He has a wife and two children -- a 4-year-old and a 4-month-old -- and when we found out what happened, we didn't feel like we could let it go."

Miraculously, the staff at Don's Wholesale also learned of Senegal's story and the Ruffino's team's generosity and decided to match the funds that were raised. With all the money that was donated in support of Senegal, Muffoletto purchased a Chevy Malibu! This vehicle was just what Senegal and his family needed to get things back to normal.

As the team members gathered to surprise Senegal, everyone knew it would be a moment that no one would forget. In the video that is now going viral, Senegal is completely taken by surprise.

The entire staff lines up to unveil his new car. In tears, Senegal can't believe what happened! He covers his face in disbelief and begins to thank his coworkers. As everyone embraces Senegal, it's impossible to ignore how touching this story truly is.
