Orion Jean is all about kindness. The 11-year-old wanted to help feed the community last year so he started a food drive. The goal was to raise 100,000 meals.

He told WFAA that people thought he might be too ambitious with such a lofty number, but Orion made it happen. He was named TIME's Kid of the Year and interviewed by Angelina Jolie.
