Quaden Bayle's family rejects $700k Disneyland trip cash

Quaden Bayle's family says they won't be accepting $700,000 raised to send the nine-year-old to Disneyland, saying they would prefer the money went to charity.

US comedian Brad Williams raised more than $700,000 through a GoFundMe page to send Quaden to Disneyland after a heartbreaking video of the boy went viral.

Like Quaden, Williams was also born with achondroplasia, a type of dwarfism. But Quaden's family say they will decline the trip as they want the money to go to charities that need it, according to NITV News.

What kid wouldn't want to go to Disneyland, especially if you have lived Quaden's life, Quaden's Aunty Mundanara Bayles said.

But my sister said 'you know what, let's get back to the real issue'.

We want the money to go to community organisations that really need it. They know what the money should be spent on, So as much as we want to go to Disneyland, I think our community would far off benefit from that.

The fundraising campaign was started after a video emerged showing Quaden "in hysterics" as he spoke about the toll bullying had had on him.
