Making holiday dreams come true for Central Florida children, thousands of Walt Disney WorldŽ Cast Members helped Santa by generously collecting new toys for the U.S. Marine Corps' Toys for Tots campaign. With a last-minute surge in donations, Cast Members greeted a convoy of Marine vehicles at the Walt Disney World Resort, delivering more than 30,000 new toys and presents for children ranging from infants to teenagers. Donning Santa hats and plenty of good cheer, Disney VoluntEARS helped the Marines load the toys onto military trucks. In addition to donating toys, hundreds of VoluntEARS gave 2,000 hours helping to register thousands of local families, translating the Toys for Tots registration forms into Spanish and Haitian-Creole, sorting and stocking shelves with collected toys and assisting with the distribution of toys to families.
