A girls’ volleyball team in Dallas bought their beloved high school janitor, Abel Rodriguez, a new car.  They found out that Abel was getting rides to and from school every day, and often had to wait until very late to get home, so they launched a GoFundMe and surprised him with a new Ford SUV.  A local State Farm Agency added insurance coverage and gas money.  Last week, Abel was “called outside for an emergency” and when he arrived, more than 100 people were cheering for him and chanting his name, unveiling his new car.
