It is 2023 now. Carmen Kelly is 82 years old. She works at Walmart.

One day, Elizabeth Rizzo went shopping at Walmart. When she saw Kelly, she thought why she was still working. “She was standing there. It made me very sad to see this old woman having to work,” Rizzo said. “I talked to other Walmart workers. They said they can’t sit down while working.”

Kelly told Rizzo that she was working to pay off about $10,000 in medical debt(医疗债务). Kelly only had $50 at the time. Rizzo helped Kelly. She made a video and put it on the Internet. Many people knew it. They together gave Kelly more than $130,000.

Kelly thanked them so much.
