Disneyland offering Anaheim sixth-graders free tickets to encourage volunteerism

The Disneyland Resort has announced a new decade-long program that they’re calling the Happiest Class on Earth: Anaheim 6th Graders Making a Difference.

As part of the program, every sixth-grader that attends an elementary school in Anaheim (or a school where most of its students live in Anaheim) will have an opportunity to earn a free Disneyland Resort Park Hopper by volunteering, individually or with their school, on a project that will benefit their school or community.

There are currently 5,000 sixth-graders in Anaheim who are eligible to take advantage of the program.

The Happiest Class on Earth Program was announced as a celebration of Disneyland’s 61st anniversary, however the new program will continue for next 10 years.
