A girls’ volleyball team at Community High School Texas in Collin County raised $9,000 to buy a car for their custodian, Abel Rodriguez, after discovering he stayed late to cheer them and often waited until 1 am for a ride home. According to reports and widely shared social media posts, the gesture gained attention when it first happened in November 2025. Months later, the story is circulating again online, bringing renewed focus to the students’ initiative and the outcome of their fundraiser.
