Homeless Man Asks For Job, Not Money And Receives 200 Offers

A woman's viral tweet led to a homeless man receiving more than 200 job offers.

Today I saw this young homeless man asking for people to take a resume rather than asking for money. If anyone in the Silicon Valley could help him out, that would be amazing. Please RT so we can help David out! pic.twitter.com/ewoE3PKFx7
