CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — He's a little kid, with a big heart.
Last year, 8-year-old Nate Gonzalez told his family he wanted to start a toy drive for children in need.
This year, they did it again, and they collected hundreds of toys for kids of CASA of the Coastal Bend.
Nate said this is just the start of something he wants to do for a long time.
“All the holidays, because people are sad and have been waiting a long time for me to help,” he said.
“This will be an annual event,” Isabel Gonzalez, his mother said. “He just wants to continue to help.”
