If someone finds a lost iPhone, should they return it to Apple

My son found a iPhone. I told him to leave it turned on so hopefully the owner would come to the location. If no one shows up, should we return it to Apple? Or call support? I want to teach my son to do the right thing. So keeping it is not an option.
