Money came pouring in at CherryVale Mall in Rockford and the phones were ringing off the hook.
A group of students from Ralston Elementary School in Machesney Park also showed up with donations of their own. In total, the gang raised $800.
The kids say they are excited to pour their snack money into the collection jugs, and know their money is going to a good cause.
The $27,000 was raised from phone calls alone. That does not include all of the cash donations, which are currently being counted
