CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — A local woman is giving back to a family who experienced tragedy earlier this week. 25-year-old Destiny Cortinas died Tuesday in a car crash as she was on the way to deliver her baby.
Doctors performed an emergency c-section to save her baby. Police say the baby is in stable condition.

On Friday, she held a diaper drive at the Sage West Apartments to collect items for Cortina's baby.
"We're a community and we should just look out for each other. What are we going to have laying around the house that someone else can use?," Garibay said.
