Jackson Rathbone’s band 100 Monkeys is making a young girls dream come true.

The Twilight Examiner has an article talking about how a Twilight fan, a girl named Dorothy with Terminal cancer, will be attending a concert by the band and meeting them in Dallas.

This is part of the press release:

“Fourteen year-old Dorothy has loved Twilight since the day she read the book. Then, after seeing the movie, she was really hooked. Like many teenagers, she dreams of meeting Robert Pattinson, falling in love and living happily ever after. She didn’t get quite that lucky but when Jackson Rathbone and his band, 100 Monkeys, heard her story they invited her to join them this weekend at their concert in Dallas, Texas.”

After the concert the band is hosting a party at Sambuca to benefit the Spencer Bell Legacy Project in honor of a friend who died of adrenal cancer.

You can read the rest of the article at the Twilight Examiner for all the details.

I think this is amazing. I love it when celebrities use their fame for such good causes. I’m sure Dorothy is going to have the greatest time.
