With temperatures dropping this weekend the need to help those living on the streets is growing exponentially.
Karina Gardian created her own clothing company called 'Knuckle Nuts', an online store that allows people to choose from a variety of clothes and winter accessories.
Through her active wear clothing line, she is giving back. 10 percent of every sale will go towards helping the local homeless population.
"We launched knuckle nuts in march with the idea that I was going to put two of my passions combined together," said Gardian. "One being my love for wellness, health, and fitness and my love for people living on the streets."
Gardian says she has seen the city’s homelessness crisis first hand and the desperate need for change.
"Working in that field I see a lot of the reasons why it’s a growing concern, it’s a growing problem, and that's because we lack in resources."
With every neck warmer sold on her website, she gives one to people experiencing homelessness in the city.
