Kindergarten students at the Children's School at Carnegie Mellon University took part in a heart-warming fundraiser Monday morning in Oakland.

The students rode tricycles around the school's gymnasium in their "Trike-a-Thon" fundraiser to support the Ally's Angels organization, which is named for 4-year-old organ recipient Ally Heintz.

The organization raises funds for the Gift of Life donor program.

The event helped raise $2,500 for Gift of Life.
