Lou... 3,118 Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Give Kids the World, five minutes from my house. A little over ten years ago, just after we moved in, I was driving around and noticed what appeared to be a Disney theme park. What the heck is this? Being curious I stopped in, found out what it was, signed up, and that was that. Got my ten year volunteer Angel pin last year. It looked like a Disney park because a lot of it was in fact done by Disney volunteers. GKTW does some great work, 95% of it by volunteers. Disney is the single largest contributor in tickets and volunteers, but all of the theme parks do their share. The Black & White Gala held on the 14th was the most successful one yet. It's a $200 a seat black tie affair. It's quite the event.If you get a chance visit the GKTW web site.http://www.givekidstheworld.org Quote Link to post Share on other sites
