The cold wind blew strongly outside． Amaya was warm in her house， thinking about an article she'd read at school． The article was about kids who helped out their communities， and she thought it would be really cool to help her own town， Harvard．

    The only problem was that she wasn't sure how to help． In the article， the kids had grown food for people who needed food， but it was winter． She couldn't start a garden． Amaya was deep in thought when her mom said it was time to go shopping．

    As they drove along the road， Amaya saw a family walking on the sidewalk（ 人 行 道 ），wearing only light jackets． How cold they must be! That gave her an idea! She could collect winter coats， hats and gloves for people who needed them．

    She shared her idea with her mom， who thought it was great． But how would they spread the idea to get plenty of winter clothing？ Amaya decided to talk to her teacher， because then she could share her idea with her classmates at least．

    Ms． Monroe agreed when Amaya talked about her idea． They decided to call the project Hats in Harvard． Then they wrote a letter explaining the project． Ms． Monroe even said she could help Amaya talk to the headmaster about it， so they could get the whole school to join in it． They met with the headmaster during lunch time． He was excited about the idea， and said he would make sure copies（复印件） of the letter went home with all the students．

    They collected enough winter clothing in only one week． Then they left the clothes around two parks， so families who needed clothes could get them there． Three days later， Amaya and her mom went shopping again． She saw the same family that had given her the idea for Hats in Harvard． This time， though， the family looked nice and warm in some new coats， hats and gloves． Amaya felt warm in her heart， and was very glad she could help others．
