Manchester teen uses "Make-A-Wish" to help the homeless

MANCHESTER, N.H. — A New Hampshire teenager with kidney disease is using his "make a wish” to help the homeless.

Wyatt Paddock, 15, of Manchester was born prematurely, so his kidneys never formed correctly.

This summer he learned he qualified for the make a wish program and after watching YouTube videos about the plight of the homeless he decided his wish was to help others.

“Since I watched that video about real-life super heroes I thought it'd be cool,” he said.

Wyatt gave out care packages to the homeless, including food, backpacks, and items to keep people warm.
