Arizona 12-Year-Old Collects 1,000 Coats For The Homeless: ‘If I Was Out There, I Would Want Someone To Care For Me.’

A 12-year-old in Arizona collected and donated about 1,000 coats for the homeless last month.

Makenna Breading-Goodrich of Surprise, Arizona, has collected coats for those in need for the last four years.

She even founded an organization, Makenna’s Coats for a Cause, which works to ensure that those in need are able to stay warm.

“It gets really cold around here at night, like 30 degrees, and I want to make sure homeless people aren’t walking around without jackets or blankets at night!” Breading-Goodrich told People Magazine. “I just want people to know someone cares about them.”
