Bug Hall Raises $20,000 for Sixth Child Birth

Brandon “Bug” Hall has raised more than $20,000 for his family through a GoFundMe campaign. The online fund reached that amount as of Sunday, exceeding the original $2,000 goal. Hall, 41, created the campaign weeks before his family expects to welcome their sixth child.

Hall is best known for his role as Alfalfa in the 1994 film “The Little Rascals.” He left the entertainment industry after deciding the career no longer aligned with his faith. He described himself in a 2025 YouTube video as a “radical Catholic extremist.”

In January, Hall told The Daily Mail that he took a “vow of poverty.” He moved his family to an 80-acre property in Arkansas with the plan to live off the grid and build their own home. Reports stated he gave away most of his possessions and all of his savings at that time.

Hall said he needed help paying for a phone bill, propane for their camper, and an unexpected electric hookup service fee. He wrote that he had fallen behind on these specific costs. “We’re all overjoyed to be where we are, and we’re even enjoying roughing it,” he wrote in the GoFundMe post.

He asked supporters to help him get the last few things ready before the baby arrives. Hall said he hopes to have everything set up on the property and then have time to work until the child is born. “I’m no more deserving than anyone else, but I ask in your charity that you help where you can,” he said.

Hall has been married to Jill Hall since 2017. Beyond “The Little Rascals,” he appeared in films and television shows including “The Big Green,” “Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves,” “Hercules,” “Charmed,” “Cold Case,” and “CSI: Miami.”
