Happy Giving Tuesday! Today is a day where we are encouraged to redirect our busy, holiday shopping schedule from Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday and channel the season of giving with service, generosity, volunteerism and acts of kindness.
Cast members and Florida community members have the unique opportunity to participate in a variety of giving opportunities in the Central Florida community. Check out these 5 ways Disney is giving back and making a difference this holiday season.
Night of a Million Lights at Give Kids The World Village
Walt Disney World cast members have once again helped light up Give Kids The World Village for its second annual Night of a Million Lights holiday event, helping make even more dreams come true for children with life-threatening illnesses wishing to visit Central Florida.
If you’re planning to visit the Central Florida area this holiday season, we encourage you to check out the lights, wonder and magic at Give Kids The World. Visit gktw.org for tickets.
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary License Plate
Florida drivers can unwrap the magic and help make children’s wishes come true by purchasing the first-ever Walt Disney World specialty license plate benefitting Make-A-Wish of Central and Northern Florida. Featuring an “EARidescent” 50th anniversary celebration logo on a majestic blue background inspired by Cinderella Castle, one hundred percent of the proceeds of this license plate benefits Make-A-Wish programs making wishes come true for children with life-threatening medical conditions. Disney has a longstanding relationship with Make-A-Wish, dating back to 1980, with more than 140,000 Disney-inspired wishes having been granted, with more than 8,000 taking place each year at Walt Disney World Resort.
