Jimmie Allen responded to a fan’s tweet on Monday, requesting that the country music singer help him with a little project.
If anyone knows anything about Jimmie Allen, you know that he is a huge fan of Disney. Twitter user @TTWAKyle used the platform to connect with Country Singer and Disney Fan, Jimmie Allen, in hopes that he could assist him in his philanthropic endeavors. Kyle suggested that Allen put on an acoustic show in Nashville to raise money to send four people with intellectual disabilities from the local community to Disney World. Kyle explained that these people have not been afforded the same opportunities as others have and that money has always been a challenge for them, but he wouldn’t let that stop him from achieving his goal. Read the initial tweet below.
So many of these people don’t have the same opportunities that you and I have. Most of the people on this trip have never been to Disney and none of them have ever traveled with friends. Money is always the challenge and I refused to take that as an answer for this trip.

Kyle even posted little bios about each of the people he is trying to get to Disney World.
This is Tyrone. Every time I get back to work after a trip to Disney Tyrone asks when I’m going to take him. Tyrone God willing I’m taking you with me in 2020. pic.twitter.com/AtGNYQJ07X

This is Doreen! She’s one of the happiest and most energetic people I’ve ever met. Doreen is an incredibly hard worker and wants to experience Disney “with her best friends”. pic.twitter.com/yzswBCSMeQ

This is Sheena! Sheena is a major Disney fan and she’s never been to the parks. When Sheena got her first job she told staff that she was saving her paycheck to go to Walt Disney World. pic.twitter.com/d9K7n08ast

Your heart will melt when you watch the excitement on each of their faces as Kyle told them that they are going to Disney.
The moment we told everyone that we were going, to this day this video makes me cry. The excitement and joy over a once in a lifetime opportunity that I have taken so for granted. We’re going to make this happen!! pic.twitter.com/zNp7gsiFDS

Just hours later, Jimmie responded! Although there doesn’t seem to be any solid plans just yet, his response felt pretty promising. See below!
@chuckwicksmusic let’s figure something out.

We love seeing celebrities support their local communities. Looks like we may have to take a trip to Nashville soon!
