Mid-February is the busiest time of the year for the "Blessing Bag Brigade," a group of special-ed students in Jackson.

While you might say they could use the help, the students are turning around and reaching out to help others.

Student volunteers at the Alpha School take part in the "Blessing Bag Brigade."

The students fill bags with necessities for the homeless, items such as socks, razors, breakfast bars and deodorant.

Later this week, the bags will be handed out across New Jersey and New York.
