Of the initial 86 honorees, 35 students were selected as “Shining Stars,” winning pay-it-forward grants of $1,000 to give back to their high schools, the opportunity to participate as “Honorary Disney VoluntEARS” at a volunteer event in February, and the opportunity to attend a celebratory luncheon in March. At the luncheon, five of the 35 “Shining Stars” will be announced as the program’s top “Luminaries” and will have the opportunity to award a $3,000 grant to their favorite Orange County charitable organization.
