MCKINNEY, Texas — A 14-year-old named Nicholas Cobb has created a non-profit group providing food and other essentials to the city’s homeless.

The Grio reports:

It started small with toiletries for the homeless, cleaning supplies for their shelters.

Then two years ago, at age 12, he set up Comfort and Joy, a small non-profit with a big goal. Buying winter coats for the people in need. With the help of his Scout troop, he raised 10-thousand dollars and purchased hundreds of coats.

It doesn’t stop there. Nicholas has even bigger plans and hopes set up a system to provide clothing for those with job interviews.
