By Summer
Giving shouldn’t be a private matter; it should be a family matter. By including our children we’re teaching them how to give. Radio Disney is hosting Project Family to encourage families spending time together. The first Project Family event is called “Festival of Giving”. This is a FREE event which allows families to give together by bringing a donation. Radio Disney has lots of fun planned for your family with interactive entertainment including music, games, and prizes.
Mark your calendars and tell a friend about Radio Disney’s Project Family: “Festival of Giving” on December 3 & 4. Donation items depend upon your city. Check the sponsored charities and you’ll know what to bring with you (i.e., The Seattle charities are Food Lifeline, Seattle Humane Society, Treehouse for Kids and Salvation Army. You could bring a non-perishable food item for Food Lifeline, a bag of pet food or treats for the Seattle Human Society, a new clothing item for a child touched by Treehouse for Kids, or a new unwrapped toy for the Salvation Army.).

I don’t really think too much of the corporation of Disney, but when they do something like this–I think it is sweet.
They’re really doing a big circuit on this. That’s great!
I like the list.
