It’s a dirty job, but someone’s got to do it.
Meet 11-year-old SJ Stewart. He’s not afraid to get his hands dirty. Stewart started a trashcan cleaning business in Burlington County.
And the best part? He used the money he earned to buy backpacks to give to kids for the new school year. He gave away 29 in all.
