The 7-year-old sold the cups of hot chocolate for $2 each.
Published 9:08 PM EDT Jun 4, 2019A 7-year-old boy from Austin has raised $22,000 through GoFundMe for a border wall by selling hot chocolate, according to We Built the Wall's Facebook page.
In an ABC13 Houston video from February, Benton said he's been called a"little Hitler." Benton also mentioned he got the idea for the the stand from President Donald Trump's State of the Union Address. In the span of 2 days, after many positive and a few negative remarks plus a social media frenzy in our neighborhood, he earned a total of $1400 cash in 3 hours. Local news picked up the story and then it appeared on National news. Benton received an outcry of support from Hannity, Shannon Bream, ABC, Members of Congress, Donald Trump Jr. and many more across the nation.The privately funded border wall is more than 20 feet tall and goes up a 300-foot incline over mountainous terrain.
The GoFundMe page calls the project"Trump approved." As of Monday afternoon, it had raised more than $22 million of its $1 billion goal. Workers work on a wall being built by Monument One, an official marker at the spot where New Mexico, Texas and the Mexican state of Chihuahua converge, by Border Highway West, near Executive Center Boulevard Monday, May 27, by "We Build the Wall" organization on land owned by American Eagle Brick Company.
He added, “A statement from someone when the stop work order was issued that they thought the project was not in compliance with the city's ordinances, that statement was incorrect. The city now agrees with us that there is no violation of any ordinance.”
