GRAND RAPIDS. Mich-

This November, FOX 17 is revisiting the stories of several people we’ve featured for “paying it forward” to see if they’re still busy giving back to the community in our West Michigan.

The Napper family took part in the first ever FOX 17 Pay It Forward Challenge in November 2011. Paul Napper and his kids took the $200 dollars to buy bargain coats, scarves and hats to help the homeless with their charity “Operation Warmth”.

Now in it’s 7th year, Paul Napper told FOX 17 the operation is still going strong, despite a small setback.

What the video above to see what the family has been up to.
