A new Walt Disney World license plate benefitting Make-A-Wish is rolling out in Florida this week. We got our first look at this plate back in May of this year when Make-A-Wish America granted their 150,000th Disney wish.
Disney Make-A-Wish License Plate
The newly redesigned Walt Disney World specialty license plate will be available in local county tax collector’s offices and license plate agencies (DMVs) throughout Florida. They will directly benefit Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida, helping grant even more wishes for children facing critical illnesses and their families.
Since being introduced during the 50th anniversary celebration, sales of the Disney license plate have raised over $2 million for this Make-A-Wish chapter.
“Disney is our largest wish granter in the world, and they know just how important it is to create joy and hope for children and families who need it most,” said Anne Cuba, President & CEO of Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida. “This new license plate is the latest way we are making big impacts for wish families in Florida, and I can’t wait to see it hit the roads soon as even more Florida drivers join us in making wishes come true.”

How to purchase the Walt Disney World Florida specialty license plate for others
Did you know you can also make a little magic for a loved one by purchasing a specialty license plate gift certificate for a motor vehicle registrant? Gift certificates for specialty license plates are available through local State of Florida DMVs or County Tax Collector’s Offices.
Once you’ve purchased your gift certificate, you’ll be given a receipt and a credit will be issued in the name of the person you are gifting the certificate to, which they can then redeem when purchasing their specialty license plate. Please note that they must be a Florida resident and do not have to present the gift certificate to redeem the credit, just proper identification (i.e. Florida driver’s license or ID card).
