70 campers meet Ben Franklin

CENTER CITY (WPVI) -- Dozens of Variety Club campers spent the day having fun at the Franklin Institute.

Variety hosts year-round programs to help build independence and self-confidence in children with physical and developmental disabilities.

Wednesday, roughly 70 campers got to tour the museum, enjoy a lunch-including an ice cream bar, and dance along to a D.J.

The kids even got a visit from Ben Franklin himself.

The trip was made possible by Firstrust Bank.
