AUSTIN (KXAN) - A local fourth-grader is getting praise for thinking of others.

Zach Stachura is a Clayton Elementary School student, and he was honored at the Rotary Club of Austin.

He developed his own service project to help the young victims of Hurricane Sandy.

Because the storm hit around Halloween time, Zach inspired his family to help collect candy.

They collected 108 pounds of the sweet stuff.

By the way, Zach said his next project is to start a service club at his school.
