So, it feels really helpful to give them stuff they need, instead of having to go out and buy it,” he said.His mother, Heidy Quill, expressed pride in her son’s commitment to helping others.“As he’s grown older, we’ve done little things like packed lunches for kids at different schools,” she said, noting that his passion for service has grown over time.The National Elementary Honor Society, which promotes community service among students, quickly embraced Quill’s idea.
