After five days and 16 hours, the Desert Bus for Hope charity event was able to raise $132,584.94 for Child's Play, nearly doubling what the group raised last year. In a statement on the event's website, the group said:

We're so very grateful to all our sponsors, donators, viewers and everyone who helped out by calling in, bringing food (and caffeine), stopping by to visit and generally making Desert Bus the huge success it has been.
