Read this passage: Cody Clark was twelve years old when he had t go to the emergency room. He quickly realized what most of us already know; hospitals are not comfortable places to be. Instead of griping about it, though, Cody decided to do something about it. He started created individual comfort kids to give to children who have to go to the hospital. These kids include things like blankets, books and rattles that are designed to make kids feel a bit safer and more comfortable during their hospital stay. Cody has used fundraising to raise the money to create approximately 200 comfort kits. Cody has now gone on to also create grandma and grandpa kits for elderly people in the same position.

What did Cody to improve hospital stays for young people? How is Cody an entrepreneur?
