Miranda Engle of Hazard, Kentucky, is 15 years old. Starting way back in 2016, she collected blankets to give to those in need.
Her project has grown through the years. Miranda collects donations from January through the end of February – and then delivers the blankets to a local women’s shelter, baby pantry and hospital. She says she hopes to collect 100 this year.
Miranda, who celebrated her birthday on January 21st, said giving back to others was the best gift she could ask for, and she plans to keep her project going for years.
“I hope to pass it along to my children when I am older and hopefully start a business,” she said. “Not really like I’m getting the money but to where I can use that money and also give it to the women’s shelter and the hospital.”
