Update 4/7/2010: Looks like the first million people have claimed their free ticket, so this program is over. Let’s hope Disney offers it again next year.
———————————
Give a Day. Get a Disney Day.
That’s the offer and it’s as simple as it sounds. To get people volunteering in their communities, Disney is offering a free 1-day, 1-theme park ticket for either Disneyland® Resort or Walt Disney World® Resort to the first million people who complete their day of service. The offer is good in the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico.
As a traveler you probably already have a strong volunteer ethic. Why? Because you’ve seen a little of the world, you appreciate cultures, communities and the elements of nature that bind us all together, and you know how important it is to support the people and programs that try to make life better for everyone.
Reaching out and connecting with others is what being a traveler is all about, even when you’re not far from home. So help out at a community garden, a local animal shelter or your old elementary school, and know that what you’re doing is just as important as if you were doing it on the other side of the world.
Oh, and enjoy the added benefit of free rides. Woo hoo!
Here’s the fine print:
