Community Raises Money to Help Homeless Man Reunite With His Family for the Holidays
A homeless man who formed a strong bond over the years with his Jessamine County, Kentucky, community has received a life-changing holiday gift. Collectively, they all raised enough money to send him over 400 miles to reunite with his family and rebuild his life.
Grandfather Brian Rolan became homeless in Nicholasville his home of 10 years in December 2019. Despite battling health issues and losing his job, Rolan always kept his head above water.
“It was kind of frustrating at first,” he admitted to LEX 18, “but then this voice in the back of my head kept telling me, ‘You’re going to be alright.’”
