Madea has MILLIONS and now she is sharing the wealth.


In honor of the organizations 100th anniversary, Tyler Perry has made a $1 million donation to the NAACP! The gift makes the largest donation ever given to a civil rights group from an individual and is said to be distributed to them over the next four years.


NAACP leaders, of course, are praising Tyler for his generosity, calling his gift to them a "paradigm-shifting moment in black philanthropy." But Tyler feels it is the least he can do for a group that has done so much for his community.


He said:


"Had it not been for the perseverance and vision of the thousands who came before me in the 100 years of this legendary organization, I would not be in the position I am today. I am proud to be able to help in their mission to fight for the equality of all people, and to work towards the elimination of discrimination."


How nice!
