This awesome holiday story tells the tale of an altruistic teenager and her efforts in the snowy city of Denver.
Teen delivers first-aid kits to homeless: Jamie Henry decided to make a difference.
A student from Heritage High School in Littleton, Colorado spent some time Friday afternoon spreading holiday cheer. After realizing how many less-fortunate people were in need of basic first-aid items.
She created a non-profit organization called "Helping Hands First Aid." It became an official non-profit in September.
Jamie handed out 150 first-aid kits to Denver's homeless population on Friday.
