7-year-old boy starts his own coat drive

Cameron wanted to donate a pile of coats as tall as he was - and he succeeded!

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — You're never too young to help others.

Seven-year-old Cameron Reyna is proof of that.

Cameron saw a homeless person when he and his mom were out one day, and the Bloomington boy decided he had to do something to help.

So he started his own coat drive.

He collected 75 coats and a bunch of other winter weather clothing. He said he wanted to have a pile that was "as tall as me" - and he succeeded.

This week, Cameron took all the things he collected and donated them to the Ain Dah Yung Center in St. Paul.
