Weston Newsanger was treated at Penn State Children’s Hospital for rhabdomyosarcoma after his diagnosis in 2016.

Now marking two-years cancer-free, Weston decided to do something special for his birthday.

"I want to get Play-Doh and dinosaurs for the children of the hospital," he told his mom, Amy.

Over the past several weeks his family collected over 1,200 containers of Play-Doh, over 1,000 dinosaurs and hundreds of other toys for the children.

"Alright y'all here is the amazing breakdown," Amy wrote on Facebook.

"Play-doh: 1,263
Dinosaurs: 1,249
Superheros: 71 + 16 capes
Plus miscellaneous items

We dropped everything off this morning and child life said this year they have already given out over 3,000 containers of play-doh.

Thank you so much for making Westons birthday donation such a huge success!"
