1 million free days at Disney

Give people a free day at Disney and a million people will show up.

It only took 10 weeks under the "Give a Day, Get a Disney Day" program to reach the program capacity of 1 million tickets. Registration started on January 1st so I’d say that this was a real success promotion. The program was announced last fall but the program rules required that the volunteer work take place this year.

Disney is giving a free day's admission to any park at Disneyland in Anaheim, Calif., or at Walt Disney World near Orlando, Fla., provided the volunteer work has been performed and certified by the HandsOn Network, a clearinghouse for volunteer opportunities.

Just imagine what other wonderful volunteer opportunities might be available when & if corporate America got creative!
