Megan Kershaw, 12, met the X Factor chief as part of a "wishlist" to aid her recovery from one of the world's rarest forms of liver cancer.
Pals had been fundraising the cash to send her to Disney World, Florida.
But Simon, 50, was so impressed by Megan's courage he offered to pay for a luxury flight, hotel and a day swimming with dolphins.
Mum Deborah, 47, of Doncaster, South Yorks, said: "Simon has been so generous. It is a trip of a lifetime."
THE start date of the new X Factor series has been announced - and it kicks off in less than TWO WEEKS.
The seventh series begins on Saturday, August 21 at 8.30pm on ITV1, with the Xtra Factor immediately after on ITV2.
The audition shows feature guest judges Geri Halliwell, Katy Perry and Natalie Imbruglia, who stood in for new mum Dannii Minogue.
Konnie Huq hosts Xtra Factor: Rewind on ITV2 this Saturday, looking back at last year's contestants.
