ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Today, meet a little girl who is taking on a big project to help the homeless.
She is spotlighted on KOAT-TV’s newest feature in “The Good News Files.”
Young Natalia Fuentes of Los Lunas packs up “blessing bags” for the homeless. What started as a school project has morphed into passing out bags that contain shampoo, shaving cream, first-aid kit, toothbrush, toothpaste, cotton swabs and snacks in Los Lunas and Albuquerque.
“If you see someone out there that’s just sad and lonely, go talk to them and make them feel like there’s hope,” 9-year-old Natalia tells KOAT’s Royale Dá.
