Saginaw 'Pay It Forward' Event Raises Money for Homeless Kids

The event is put on by students from several different schools, from 3rd grade to high school.

It all began in 2008, when a Swan Valley traveling baseball team decided to adopt a family for the holidays. It's grown quite large, and the group, called 'Swan Valley Pay It Foward,' now holds an annual open house.

The group received its non-profit status earlier this year, and their open house was held over the weekend. It featured crafts, trees, etc. that were all donated to be sold. Admission was $5, and according to the event's Facebook page, it was their biggest year yet.

Proceeds from the open house will go towards a Christmas party for needy children in the Saginaw area.
