New Disney Florida license plate benefitting Make-A-Wish now available

Starting this week the freshly redesigned Walt Disney World license plate becomes available at local county tax collector’s offices and license plate agencies (DMVs) throughout the state.

This revamped license plate continues to contribute directly to Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida, aiding in fulfilling the wishes of children facing critical illnesses and their families.

Originally introduced during Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebration, this specialty license plate has reached a significant milestone, raising over $2 million for the Make-A-Wish chapter through its sales.

Anne Cuba, President & CEO of Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida, highlighted Disney’s significant role as the world’s largest wish granter, emphasizing their dedication to bringing joy and hope to children and families in need. She expressed enthusiasm for the newly designed license plate, viewing it as another impactful way to support wish families in Florida.

By choosing this specialty license plate, Florida drivers not only add a touch of pixie dust to their vehicles but also actively contribute to making wishes come true for deserving children and their families in the region.

How to purchase the Disney Florida 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).

Disney has been granting wishes alongside Make-A-Wish for more than 40 years, and I’m so excited to see this pixie-dusted design roll out onto roadways as we continue supporting this inspiring mission together. Now, I’m off to get my new license plate
