A 10-year-old Gwinnett boy recently used his impressive piano skills to raise a big stack of cash — and then donated it to the hospital treating his grandmother's cancer.

The Gwinnett Medical Center Foundation recently highlighted the efforts of young Brandon Won on its Facebook page. He raised a total of $1,500 at a piano recital, they said, before giving it all to the GMC Cancer Institute "in honor of the associates and physicians at GMC who are caring for his grandmother who is currently battling breast cancer."

The GMC Foundation's post garnered hundreds of likes and many adoring comments.

"Wow! How awesome!! This guy rocks!" one woman wrote.

"How sweet!" wrote another.
