Disney can make special arrangements for certain visiting parties to be escorted through the parks, to the fronts of the lines, etc. I wonder if this could be arranged in advance for Drake and his family. (And I did not search the entire thread to see if this already had been discussed).

Details on that are being worked out. It's looking like they will be going through Give Kids The World.

I have a 9 year old and 7 year old. We made a Christmas card to Drake last night and both of them asked a lot of questions and both signed the card in tears. I have been a parent for 21 years and it was one of the most heart warming experiences I have had..we had a nice long talk about Drake and what he is most likely facing. He has a couple kids here that are praying for him.

Update: in 48 hours we have raised $15,389 by 361 people. It is looking like Drake and his family will be going on an all expenses paid 6 night stay at Give The Kids The World Village/Disney starting on 1/12/19. He will get to skip all the lines for everything and be first in line to meet all the charcters. Also, thanks to another GFM campaign, he will be going to the Fiesta Bowl, an NBA game, and an NHL game. He will be the Fiesta Bowl MVP as well as the Fiesta Bowl Parade MVP! Drake will truly be living the dream the next couple of months. Thank you all for the shares and contributions.


That's awesome stuff right there folks. Good job.

Hey all, I wanted to pop in here and say hello. I've been helping lead the charge as far as fundraising efforts on the UCF side of things. Our fan base has been so energized by this campaign. It's been exciting to see more and more media outlets pick up this story, though I'm hoping we can get an outlet khere in Orlando, or otherwise) to call out the influx of UCF donors, as a way to inspire another round of donations from Knight Nation. Until then, I've been pounding the social media pavement as best as I know how, to try to keep the ball rolling on this. Any advice on how to best make that happen is appreciated greatly!

We'll see you on the field in three weeks, but as far as I'm concerned, we're working together. This is bigger than football. Geaux Knights!
