Tyler Perry is paying for 65 children from a Philadelphia day camp to go to Walt Disney World after reading about allegations that a suburban swim club had shunned them because of racism.

The kids will have a four day vacation at the land for kids.

Tyler Perry writes, "...It broke my heart and I wanted to do something. I want them to know that for every act of evil that a few people will throw at you, there are millions more who will do something kind for them. Show them they are just as good as anyone else that they can do or be anything they want to be no matter what anyone says."

The children will never forget the swim club episode. Hopefully, this act of kindness will lead them to believe they just need to take a few extra steps to find the good in this world.
