Distinguished Finalist

Randall Davidson, 17, of Timonium, Md., a senior at Dulaney High School, was moved by his own experience with homelessness to launch a biweekly collection drive that’s gathered 500 items to help homeless people throughout Maryland during the cold winter months. Randall advertised his “Healing the Hearts and Bodies of the Homeless” campaign online and through fliers, placed donation boxes in his church and contacted organizations that serve the homeless to help as many people as possible.
