'Dreams Take Flight Ottawa'
"One day each year, Dreams Take Flight Ottawa takes a large group of children from the National Capital Region and nearby communities on a fun-filled one day adventure to the Magic Kingdom at Disney World in Orlando, Florida.
An aircraft is donated by Air Canada and crewed by Air Canada employees who volunteer their services. A Volunteer Corps works throughout the year to raise funds for aircraft fuel, park admission and other costs, and to organize the logistics of this busy day.
Flights, park admission, food, souvenir allowance, clothing and more are provided at no cost to the family". (Taken from their website)
If you would like to buy a $10 ticket (Total Prize Value: $9.900.00) to support this cause, contact Rotarian Rob Scaife at rob.scaife@gmail.com. To learn more about 'Dreams Take Flight Ottawa' check out their website:
