Ben Weymiller Rocks!

Imagine setting a pretty lofty goal for your self: say raising $20,000 for charity. Now imagine not only reaching the goal, but exceeding it by 400%

Wow!

That's what Ben Weymiller did.



Young Ben has a niece who had to spend some time in the hospital, and while visiting, Ben learned that the hospital didn’t have a rocking chair for every room. Ben thought that was a real problem since as he says in his firstgiving.com page: “I think that every sick baby deserves to be rocked by their parents.”

So, Ben set his mind to raising money so the hospital could by rocking chairs.
