Family of Bullied Boy with Dwarfism Says $474K Raised for Disneyland Trip Will Be Given to Charity

Quaden, a 9-year-old Aboriginal Australian with achondroplasia dwarfism, found himself in the public eye earlier this month after his mother posted a since-deleted Facebook video of him in tears saying that he wanted to end his life over relentless bullying,After the clip went viral, Quaden received support across the globe — including from comedian Brad Williams, who set up a“I’m setting up this GoFundMe to let Quaden know that bullying will not be tolerated, and that he is a wonderful human...

Though the crowdfunding page has raised $474,924 — more than enough for flights, a hotel, food and Disneyland tickets for two — Williams said Thursday that Quaden and his family had “kindly declined going to Disneyland.”“I have been in close communication with Quaden’s family and fully respect their needs and the needs of Australian First Nations people who are experiencing bullying and discrimination at extremely high rates,” he wrote.

The point of the go fund me was to raise money for Disney land and now they’re declining? Am I missing something?!

Supposedly people are saying the boy isn’t really 9 that he is an actor and they couldn’t go to Disney because his mother has some kind of travel restriction

It's ridiculous how people throw money at a problem but don't solve it. How smart of the family. Maybe they should send him to a private school and used some of it for his education.

That’s so sweet

Send to Disney all the kids that has been separated from parents at the border and have them on cages ..... they deserve it!!!!!

Wow 😳🙌🏼

I’m glad the mom did the right thing! I’m sure you all have seen his anti white video posted on his mother’s Facebook? Nice!

It better be. I gave an Abe Lincoln up. Could have bought some Cisco & a loosey.

Reading through these messages, my jaw falls to the floor. I can't believe how mean some people can be... It's totally horrendous.

you are such a leader. Keep showing people how a champ responds.

Great
