Disney Give a Day, Get a Day

IS OVER...... http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blo...-to-volunteer/

I hope you've done your volunteer service or have already signed up & committed to a date & time....otherwise you have missed out!

Only 10 weeks (or so) into the new year....I think Disney might have been surprised by how quickly they reached the one million mark.

We did our volunteering in February & have our vouchers in our travel notebook for our July/Aug trip.

Did anyone do this???

We worked at a food bank, filling bags of onions, green beans & meat chunks. We had fun & our 8 yr old was quite entertaining for everyone....he also worked very hard!!

We did not participate. Did you see when they unveiled the can monument thing? It looks awesome....wish I could see it in person!

I couldn't find anything local. And with my allergies, anything rescue pet related was out. Well, at least I do some volunteer work now and then, and it's never a big deal to add an extra day to a Disney vacation, since the tickets get pretty cheap once you're tacking on days.

The only thing I found local was a suicide or women's hotline. There is no way I can do something like that because of my own mental health.

I am glad you did it and had fun Laurie.

I ran into the same problem, nothing in our area and then when things started showing up, I couldn't find any for Sundays which would be the only day Jake and I could do it. I bet my mom missed out on it (even though I sent her all the info like 50 times! lol). Oh well, we'll just pay for the extra day then. Or do you guys think they'll extend it for more tickets?

We were trying to find something for Mike's mom to do (she volunteers all the time) but nothing tied into the program in her area. We're actually not using our vouchers for a day at the parks...we're using them for the bonus Fastpasses (gonna use a voucher a day until they're gone). The FP's are good for you & up to 5 guests in your party for 6 bonus FP's. I figure since we're going in the heat of summer....these would come in handy!!!

I'm using mine for the Figurine & collectible pins available for AP holders........love my pins!!
