A Calgary businessman's desire to make a small gesture to help a local homeless shelter supply a basic clothing item to its clients has turned into a cross-country road trip for charity.
It began when Brent King, 40, called the Mustard Seed Street Ministry asking what he could do to help.
"I said, 'Look, I'm interested in making a charitable donation of some description. And I'd really like to take a problem that you have and potentially try to solve it, something small, something manageable, something contained'," he told CBC News on Friday.
