A 13-year-old middle school student Vidal Chastanet from Brownsville, Brooklyn, has received more than 1 million donations on Facebook last week because of his hard-working.

Chastnet talks to Humans of New York about the person who has influenced him most, Ms. Lopez, his school's principal. When we get in trouble, she doesn't suspend us. She calls us to her office and explains to us how society was built down around us. And one time she made every student stand up, one at a time, and she told each one of us that we matter, Chastanet told Humans of New York.

His story inspired President Obama. The president sat down with him on Thursday, giving him the opportunity to share his inspirational story and let the boy ask him some personal questions. 

The president offered words of encouragement and inspiration in his office. Talking about his mother's influence in his life, Obama detailed her struggle as a single mother. 

"She had to work and she went to school. She had to raise me and raise my sister," Obama said. "She had to work, she had to raise kids, it was a victory of her spirit." 

"Usually life is not a straight line. We don't do things alone. Nobody does things alone," he said. "Everybody always needs support. You'll have a lot of people supporting you out there. You just need make sure you seize those opportunities. That’s the most important for you". 

The White House said the donations raised for the school will be used to send students to visit Harvard, support summer programs and provide scholarships to students.
