About Give Kids The World Village
Give Kids The World Village is an 84-acre, nonprofit resort in Central Florida that provides weeklong, cost-free vacations to children with life-threatening illnesses and their families. The Village and its community partners provide children and their families accommodations in fully-furnished villas, transportation, tickets to theme parks, meals, daily entertainment and much more.
Each year 27,000 children in the United States are diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. Half of all children eligible for a wish through a partnering wish-granting organization choose to visit Central Florida and its collection of theme parks and other attractions.
The goal, quite simply, is to provide everything these deserving families need to make their trip the vacation of a lifetime. Since 1986, more than 167,000 children and families have had their dreams fulfilled in a whimsical Village unlike any other place on earth.
Since 2012, the Workers’ Compensation Institute has supported Give Kids The World by bringing hundreds of volunteers to work in Village venues and assist with Village service projects. WCI also hosts an annual Give Kids The World Gala which includes a sit-down dinner, silent auction, and entertainment.
WCI has raised almost $300,000 for GKTW over the past 5 years!

2021 Registration – Coming Soon
Registration for the WCI 2021 Give Kids The World Service Day will be coming soon! Please read this ENTIRE section before registering.
Please utilize our online registration for our service day. This process will allow you the option to view details about each service project and pick the one in which you would like to participate. It will also allow companies, friends, and families to participate in the same service projects with each other. Teams and groups will need to review the list of service projects and agree, ahead of time, which one they want to work on together and then sign up accordingly.
All volunteer positions are on a first come, first served basis. The website will update regularly to reflect the most accurate number of open volunteer positions. If your desired service project is already full when you register, please choose another equally fulfilling service project from our list.
WCI or GKTW do not provide T-Shirts for the service day. Certain companies have internally decided to provide their employees with specific shirts for the day of the event. We included a question regarding shirt size on the registration form so that we can provide these companies with this information should they want it.
If you register multiple times for friends or family members, please put the names of the actual registrants (not duplicates of your name) so we can get an accurate count of the volunteers.
Thank you for joining us as part of this amazing day!
