Little Boy Gives Gifts To Homeless In LOVE Park

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – A 10-year-old boy brought the spirit of Santa to the homeless in LOVE Park on Christmas Day.

This began when Mark Warner was waiting for a bus with his mom when he met a homeless veteran only known as "Mr. Rick."

So with his family, Mark saved money and asked Santa to pass his house this year, and instead bought presents for the homeless.

Not even knowing if they'd be able to find anybody to give the gifts to, the response they got at LOVE Park was overwhelming to say the least.

The feeling was shared as other groups joined in.

As for Mr. Rick, there was no sign of him Friday, but he clearly made a huge impact on Mark, as well as the community.
