Paris Hilton Lets Sick Children Down

The Courier Mail reports that despite making promises before the media to organize a star-studded benefit concert in Los Angeles to raise much-needed funds for the Gold Coast charity Paradise Kids in 2004, the group, which supports seriously ill children and their families, hasn’t heard from Paris Hilton since. “I don’t want to dump on Paris,” said Paradise Kids co-founder Reverend Dr Ian Mavor. “She was a lovely person and I think she was well-intentioned at the time. We really enjoyed her coming to see the kids. It was a thrill for them and, sadly, a couple of them have since died.” Rev Mavor added, “The promise hasn’t amounted to anything – nothing, not a penny. We really needed the funds.” The full story at news.com.au has since been removed.
