Zachary "Zach" L. Bonner (born November 17, 1997) is an American philanthropist and founder of the non-profit charity Little Red Wagon Foundation.

[3] In 2004, when Hurricane Charley hit neighborhoods, he collected 27 pickup trucks of water in his little red wagon.

[2] Bonner teamed up with the StandUp For Kids and collected 400 backpacks of supplies, nicknamed "Zachpacks", for homeless children.

[6] To mitigate the adverse effects of homelessness, Bonner hosted parties for children who live in shelters at Build-A-Bear Workshop, Chuck E. Cheese's, and Six Flags.

As keynote speaker at The Children's Philanthropy Center Annual Youth Symposium in Northern Virginia, he inspired young activists to use their voice to create change.

[21] Multiple television and radio stations tracked for their viewers Bonner's journey across America using the "Zach Tracker" GPS.

[25][26] Beginning March 26, 2013,[27] Bonner lived seven days in a 512 cubic feet (14.5 m3) plexiglas box in a field near Westfield Brandon mall.

[27][28] With plywood serving as the box's bottom, pieces of cardboard, and a sleeping bag, Bonner aimed to imitate a homeless person's lodgings.

[28] Naming his fundraising effort "Zach in a Box", he encouraged people to donate non-perishable food.

[30] The previous world record holder was a North Carolina school that collected 559,885 pounds of food in 2011.

[31] The collected food was delivered to 10 counties: Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Polk, Hernando, Citrus, Sumter, Highlands, Hardee, and Manatee.

[33] In the same year, he was honored with the Points of Light Award by Florida governor Jeb Bush for his volunteer service.

Receiving 22% of the vote, Bonner defeated the "hero pilot" Chesley Sullenberger and students in Iran who protested against a rigged election despite considerable jeopardy to their lives.

[43] The John Templeton Foundation funded the film which was produced by Michael Guillen of Philanthropy Project, Barbara Kelly, and Steve Golin and David Kanter of Anonymous Content.

[49][50] He lives in a single-parent household[20] after losing his father in a motorcycle accident[51] and now resides in Valrico, Tampa, Florida with his mother Laurie and sister Kelley.

[53] In a November 2007 interview with The Independent Florida Alligator, he said he wished to go to college at Harvard University and attend Yale Law School, so that he can become a prosecutor.

[53] That same month, he told The Christian Post that he wanted to study law to "be able to tie in the [Little Red Wagon] Foundation and continue to help more people".

[54] A February 2017 article in the Tampa Bay Times noted that Bonner attended the Brandon campus of Hillsborough Community College during high school, and presently works at Apple Inc.[55] After high school, he attended the University of Florida where he studied Computer Science and Software Engineering.
