Teenagers in Chicago armed with boxes of breakfast cereal created a Guinness world record-breaking mosaic on Thursday: and raised money for Ukraine in the process.

Reuters shared the news.

Using some 5,000 boxes of cereal donated by Kellogg's, members of the Chicago Children United for Ukraine created a gigantic cereal mosaic on the floor of the Wintrust Financial Corporation's Grand Banking Hall in downtown Chicago.

They used yellow Corn Pops boxes and blue Rice Krispies to recreate a depiction of the Ukrainian flag.

"We wanted to raise awareness for Ukraine," said 15-year-old Michael Kotcher.

"So, we decided to break a record with a good cause behind it."

The cereal will be donated to a local food bank, while donors have pledged nearly $15,000 to the fundraiser so far.
