Single dad carrying daughter while delivering food melts hearts
A food delivery man who carries his toddler daughter as he delivers food every day in Jiaxing in east China’s Zhejiang Province has moved quite a few netizens, people.com.cn reported.
Li Bangyong, 39, from Zhaotong in southwest China’s Yunnan Province, came looking for a job in Jiaxing seven years ago. Li has taken care of his daughter all by himself since his wife left home in 2017.
Li has worked as a deliveryman for about a year. He has to carry his daughter with him every day and has fixed a safety seat for her on the front of his scooter. He leaves home at 7am and finishes work around 7pm.
Netizens were moved by his story and offer help. A campaign organized by the district’s Red Cross society and an online fundraising project has eased financial burden. Li has also found childcare for his daughter with the help of the local community.
