Florida Boy Walks for Homeless Children

Zach Bonner, a budding philanthropist from just outside of Tampa, has elected to spend the next half a year on a journey across America. He'll walk nearly 2,500 miles from Florida to Los Angeles in order to raise awareness for the estimated 1.5 million homeless children in America. The Orlando Sentinel quoted Bonner as saying "If it only helps one child, it will be completely worth it". His Mother will be following him around the nation in a donated RV, and he hopes to cover around 15 miles per day.

If you'd like to learn more about Zach, or see where he's going, you can follow him on his twitter, or ZachTracker.com. You can also visit the website for his charity, The Little Red Wagon Foundation.
