Radio Rookies: Wanting to be a Kid, Needing to Help Provide

Radio Rookies | Nov 23, 2020

Radio Rookie Daniel Torres-Lopez got laid off from his part-time job at 7-Eleven at the start of the pandemic. The job was important because he was able to give his mom $50 a week and, without it, the family of six struggled to keep their fridge full. But then Daniel found a bike his neighbor had thrown away. Once he got it fixed up, Daniel was able to start delivering food once he was done with his schoolwork for the day. He wanted to pay his bills and save for his first year at college, but his family was still struggling, leaving him unsure of what to do.
