Ben Mazur, 24, works at Schnucks—a grocery store chain in Alton, Illinois. Back in March, Mazur was collecting carts (手推车) in the parking lot when he noticed a cart rolling down the hill with a child inside—while all cars were pulling in and out of the lot.
The cart got away from a mother who was trying to get her other children in the car. She hardly noticed until it was almost too late, but thankfully, Mazur was watching. He saved the child’s life.
On Wednesday, Alton Mayor Brant Walker surprised the 24-year-old by declaring May 5 as "Ben Mazur Day". It's a special way for Mazur, his family, co-workers, and trainers from Challenge Unlimited to celebrate his act of good faith and his birthday also happened on that day. "Schnucks was actually his dream job so you know it was like a big deal when he got hired at Schnucks," said Jiuana Evans, job coach at Challenge Unlimited.
Mazur is on the autism spectrum (自闭症谱系) and has been working with Challenge Unlimited, a program that helps people with disabilities find jobs in the community. "I wasn't ________ because I feel like it's Ben, but it just made me feel so good because he's outstanding and I know he's going to continue to do great things," Evans said.
