Texas Teen Brings Holiday Cheer on Wheels
Every year, Clayton Lillard tries to make Christmas a little more special for children whose parents are in prison.
He and his "crew" fix up used bicycles and even acquire new ones for families in need.
This started when Clayton was just 10 years old! He has now given away 900 bikes in eight years.
Click image below or here to learn how Clayton's social venture started and grew.
