A 10-year-old boy has raised $20,000 and counting for Children's Hospital of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, according to CNN.
It all started when Blake Kroll, who has been going to hospitals for years for medical issues, auctioned his pig at the Wisconsin State Fair for $500. He then donated the money to Children's. Seeing his generosity, others in the crowd began to donate to the hospital too, until 31 businesses had donated, according to the report.
The family even received cash and checks in the mail after the auction to add to the donation amount. The Kroll family told CNN they are still receiving donations.
