Man Rushes To Elderly Neighbors’ Aid When Power Goes Out During Storm

A man pulls a generator down his driveway in the rain

During times of dangerous weather, it’s all the more important to check in on your neighbors. This is especially true when it comes to those who are elderly or disabled. Luckily, there are countless folks who really will go out of their way to help others during times like this. The man in the video below is such a perfect example. The man and his wife, who uploaded the video, live in Houston. That means they were directly in the path of Hurricane Beryl.

This storm has been no joke, causing both animals and humans alike to prepare as much as possible. But some of the work can’t be done until the hurricane arrives. This includes turning on a generator when the power goes out. That’s something this man did for his own family, but that’s not why he’s such a hero — he fired up the generator for their elderly neighbors, too. This is so impactful, in part, because it allows them to continue to run their medical devices.
