Disney Citizenship Invites Fans to Celebrate 30th Anniversary of Disney VoluntEARS at D23 Expo 2013

You may have heard about the Disney VoluntEARS. You may even have witnessed them making a difference in your community — but how about becoming a Disney VoluntEAR?

Yep! In celebration of the program’s 30th anniversary, we’re inviting fans and families to give back to their communities as “honorary” VoluntEARS for the day at the D23 Expo, which takes place August 9-11 at the Anaheim Convention Center. As an “honorary” VoluntEAR, you’ll have a chance to work alongside Disney employees and nonprofits on one of the following three service projects:

  • Create healthy snack packs for a local food bank: Fans will pack healthy snack bags for kids and families in Los Angeles County. Snack packs will be distributed through the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank.
  • Plant seeds for school and community vegetable gardens: Working with Inside the Outdoors, “honorary” VoluntEARS will prepare vegetable and herb seedlings that will later be distributed to nearby school and community gardens.
  • Assemble creativity kits for kids: Guests will join First Book and Boys & Girls Clubs to decorate and fill creativity kits with school supplies and Disney books for thousands of kids heading back to school this fall.

 

So, come share a few minutes of your time and help make a lasting, positive impact on your community. We hope to see you there!
