A Marine Corps veteran who got some much needed help four years ago decides to pay it forward by helping another veteran who is in need.
Years ago, a veteran in Arizona got some much needed help from others, and in the years since, she turned her life around. Now, she is paying it forward by helping another veteran in need. FOX 10's Stephanie Bennett reports.An Army veteran in need was gifted a car on Oct. 31, but what makes this story so special is that the car came from another veteran who managed to turn her life around.
Since getting the car, Thompson has completely turned her life around. She now has a job with the VA, and bought 38 acres of land in Snowflake. Now, Thompson wants to pay it forward and help another veteran in need, and James Mitchell is now getting the help Thompson got. "It will allow me to get back to work, save the money up. I need to save and travel to see my daughter again," said Mitchell.
"I don't know what this person has gone through, but they need help, and knowing the possibilities of what it can do in a positive way makes me really emotional, so I am excited to see how it helps him and changes his life too," said Thompson.
