Chase Winovich and his Michigan football teammates continue to hit new milestones in their ChadTough fundraising effort.

On Christmas Day, Winovich tweeted that more than $125,000 has been raised, adding that the original goal was $15,000 in 10 days.

“I started this challenge with the hope of raising $15,000 in about 10 days,” Winovich wrote. “As a community of people taking a stand against DIPG and childhood cancer, we have went above and beyond that. Thank you to everyone that has made this Christmas the most special!”

Winovich said last week that he would dye his hair orange for the Outback Bowl if he helped raise $15,000. Maurice Hurst also joined, saying he would dye his hair if $73,000 was raised. Grant Newsome, Devin Bush and defensive coordinator Don Brown also pledged.

It is with my great honor that I welcome our Defensive Coordinator, Coach Don Brown to the fight against DIPG! And at $125,000, he will be dyeing his legendary mustache orange! Donation link in bio! #chadtough pic.twitter.com/wn4pfS3Pjz

The ChadTough foundation raises funds and awareness for diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and cancer. Chad Carr, grandson of former Michigan coach Lloyd Carr, died in 2015 after getting diagnosed with DIPG in 2014.
