Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

The Ted Williams story keeps soaring to greater heights. In a true rags to riches tale, Williams went from being homeless, to fielding dozens of job offers from top consumer brands wanting to be affiliated with his amazing story. The first of these offers to bare fruit comes from Kraft Foods via their ‘You know you love it’ campaign for KRAFT HOMESTYLE Macaroni & Cheese. Ted Williams lends his golden velvet voice to wrap up the commercial in style.

KRAFT HOMESTYLE Macaroni & Cheese. Cheesy noodles topped with golden bread crumbs. You know you love it.

Ted William’s amazing story starts when he was discovered by Doral Chenoweth a journalist for The Columbus Dispatch. Doral had the foresight and compassion to post a video interview of Williams on Youtube. The video subsequently went viral via Twitter and Facebook. The rest is history!

Everyone deserves that second chance after being “human”. This time around, I like to imagine he will be “high” on gratitude! Thank you, Kevin, for updating us on this story of caring, community and compassion. Rock on! G

I think his family will rally around him this time and keep him on the straight and narrow. He is truly blessed.

Such an amazing story of how second chances can really pay off. He has a God given gift and it’s great to see him get an opportunity to share his gift with others. Thank you Kevin for posting such an uplifting story. It makes you feel that anything is possible. You just need to go for it!

Everything he needed to succeed was in him all along. He just needed to step out of his own way. Once he got clean, the right people came into his life to turn things around.

It’s a sad state of affairs when you have to be homeless to get a job in this economy! But, kudos to him. That’s great news and hopefully his life can begin to turn around now. Kraft was smart to be the first company to bring Ted on board. It will undoubtedly get a lot of great PR from this!

I hope that he becomes a representative of the homeless masses and opens more peoples eyes to the plight of the poor.

This is a quite human story of how a person can always hope for improving his or her life. Yes, there is an element of chance but one could always do the best with what he or she has and hope for the better. Thanks Kevin for bringing it to us.

I hope he come to terms with his dark past and takes this once in a lifetime opportunity to start over.

You’re welcome Nahum. Thanks for stopping by.

You might have seen this already. It adds nicely to your thoughts.

I know they’ve gotten him in touch with some counseling to help deal with this sudden turn of events and all the temptations that will come with it. We are all hoping for the best.
