Will it be helping the kid (or kids in similar position) in any way? I don't really think so.... you will only be kicking him back to the street looking for the next (maybe more abusive) job! Child Labor can be a terrible thing, yet cleaning tables & collecting trays @ Hardees isn't the worst thing a kid his age can do (or can be forced to do!) for money... He is safer cleaning tables than trafficking Marijuana or getting raped in the back of garage. If the Kid's parents have it in them to cut from his schooling time & put him on the street, then most certainly they will do it again... and 'practically' you CAN NOT prevent that. While I'm fairly certain that the local branch are using the kid as cheap labor, yet -Ironically- they are doing him a big favor. say you mailed it to somebody, and assuming he actually has enough care, enthusiasm & Power to do something about it…
