She Lived on the Street, But She Didn’t Ask for Money

For 16 long years, Wanda Ritter lived on the streets, carrying a suitcase filled with documents and uncashed checks. She claimed the government owed her $100,000, but no one believed her. Many dismissed her as a lunatic, and despite her pleas, no one took the time to listen.

However, everything changed when Julie Turner, a 56-year-old social worker, heard Wanda’s story. Julie decided to examine the documents Wanda carried, and to her shock, she found out that Wanda was telling the truth. Wanda had been receiving checks ranging from $300 to $900 each month but never cashed them, fearing complications.

Julie’s determination led the two women through bureaucratic red tape, ultimately securing Wanda her first paycheck of $1,644 from Social Security. This payment marked the first step in rectifying the injustice Wanda had suffered.

Wanda’s story reminds us that kindness and empathy still exist. Among the indifference of many, there are people like Julie who take the time to make a difference and help restore justice.
