As the video became viral, a local musician, one Jonathon Brannon @BrannonMusic, came across it and bought the girl four tickets to Disneyland.
We are so grateful, Raj tweeted back in appreciation.

The musician, Jonathon Brannon, said that he had been moved to buy the girl four tickets to the amusement park after seeing the video of Allison Ettel, 44, making the call, which was shared by the child's cousin, Raj, and quickly went viral.
A new video posted by Raj shows the girl learning of the tickets and jumping up and down screaming in excitement.

I'd be a bit concerned if people were using my kid to ask for donations without my knowing about it.
