Cinderella's Castle must be bustling and buzzing with amazing people who were able to obtain Disneyworld tickets for volunteering. Goofy, Minnie, Pluto and Mickey must be excited to be surroundede by people who are willing to give their free time to help their community. And thanks to Disney's "Give a Day, Get a Disney Day" campaign, we saw an unprecedented number of volunteers come out and help in the beginning of this year. These volunteers helped with projects that supported education, environmental restoration, hunger alleviation, etc. Their effect was far reaching in many aspects of Seattle and all over the country, and it is refreshing for volunteers to have gotten rewarded with a fun, light-hearted visit to Disneyworld.
While Nemo, Aladdin and Pocahontas shake hands (or fins) with our volunteers, we still have projects here in Seattle that could use love an attention. Though we can't offer any more Disney tickets (Disney gave them all out), we can offer all of the following opportunities and perks of volunteerism:
- Meet new people in your community!
- Network around Seattle
- Learn about the organizations that do amazing things everyday
- Feel good about making a difference; create "A Whole New World" here at home
- Use your skills or build new skills (good for the resume)
- Show your neighbors you care
- And many more...only to be discovered by doing!
Want to know more about how to experience all of the above things: Join us at one of our Hot Projects coming up, we have several that could still use some extra hands! You can also choose to join a Team Works Team coming up in September! Go to www.seattleworks.org for more information on both these programs. See you all out there!
