Hope Park Day
Volunteers are needed to Build Hope Park, a community playground being developed in cooperation with the Town of Mooresville and the Lowe’s YMCA.

On March 10-14, hundreds of volunteers are needed to build the Hope Park playground. To encourage community volunteerism, Disney is donating a 1-day, 1-theme park ticket for free admission to one of the theme parks of Walt Disney World® Resort or the Disneyland® Resort when you sign up and complete a day of volunteer service with a participating organization such as Hope Park.

To qualify for a free ticket, interested volunteers must sign up for eligible volunteer opportunities for the “Give a Day. Get a Disney Day.” program through the Disney site. Participation in volunteer activities outside of the Disney sign-up process does not qualify for a free ticket.
