This is a little OT, but your daughter obviously has a compassionate and caring heart and I don't want her to feel as though it's up to her to make this young man's situation better.
I would recommend against calling 911 simply because if this got into his medical records, a diagnosis of depression can really cause problems with his ability to get insurance later; at least, that's what I was taught about 10 years ago (things might be different now but I'd sure be surprised if they changed for the better, at least for adults with pre-existing conditions). I think informing the school counselor is by far the best place to start--that's what he or she is there for, and it's what he or she is trained for.
You and your daughter are sweetie pies.
