MANCHESTER, N.H. A New Hampshire boy won the PlayStation 3 he donated to a school raffle. But Nathan Burditt won't be playing with this game. He plans to put it on eBay to raise even more money for two classmates who are battling cancer.

Stephanie Hudon, 15, is undergoing treatment for bone cancer. Her brother Kevin, was recently diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma.

Teachers and students at Memorial High School in Manchester organized a raffle in early December to help the Hudon family. Burditt donated the PS3 he bought after waiting in line 34 hours.

The raffle was held Monday and Burditt won the PlayStation 3. It came as a big surprise because Burditt never bought any tickets. Many people who were impressed with his generosity bought raffle tickets in his name.

Burditt plans to auction off the PS3 on eBay and donate the money to the Hudon family.

A fund has been established for the Hudon family. Donations for Kevin & Stephanie Hudon will be accepted at any Bank of America.

Now that's totally wicked Smile What a good hearted lad.

It's always great to hear about kids or anyone for that matter going out of their way to help others.

With always hearing bad news all the time, something like this just gives you a ray of hope there's loads of good out there. I'm sure there is but we just don't often hear about it.

How nice to hear something like this. Just goes to show you that not all kids are bad. I've worked with so many good kids over the years that I hate when people bad mouth them.... really they're very good at heart.
