Tyler Perry Treats 65 Swimming Pool Excluded Kids To Disney World 

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 black and Hispanic children who attend the day camp run by Creative Steps Inc. cheered Monday when they learned about the actor’s gift.

Creative Steps director Alethea Wright says she’s thrilled about the offer, especially because Perry “comes from humble beginnings” like the children in her camp.

Perry, 39, in such stage and screen hits as “Medea Goes to Jail” and “Meet the Browns,” recalls seeing one of the Creative Steps kids crying on the news about being shunned and humiliated at the club.

CNN reported some of the children complained that white club members made racist comments to them.

“This made me so angry,” Perry said on his website. “This is awful, and for anyone that has grown up in the inner-city, you know that one small act of kindness can change your life.”

“I am ecstatic for the children,” said Alethea Wright, the day care’s director, who received Perry’s generous offer last Friday.

Adds Perry, “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.”

The Valley Club in Huntingdon Valley has maintained that refunding the camp’s swimming fee was not about race but rather a safety issue, in part because many children couldn’t swim.

Tyler Perry is such a big-hearted man! How much do we love him!
