Strangers Donate $130,000 To Cardboard Arcade Kid’s College Fund


feel-good story of the week is definitely the one involving nine year-old Caine, whose cardboard arcade is just about the cutest thing ever.

The slick film put together to document his arcade was done for a reason, though: it was aimed at gathering donations towards a college fund for Caine.

Less than a week after first taking off, Caine’s college fund looks a lot healthier than Lisa Simpson’s at the moment, generous onlookers having donated $US130,000.

With the average annual cost to attend a private college in the US at just under $US20,000, Caine can now either attend the Gold-Plated Arcade College for Demi-Gods on Mount Olympus, or he can just bum around a regular college for as long as he wants.
