On Friday, December 23rd there was a fire that occurred at Unno Boutique in Kissimmee, Florida.  This fire resulted in 250 being left without a place to stay for Christmas.  At first one of the middle schools in Kissimmee was the temporary shelter for these individuals. This didn’t seem like the best place for these families to have to spend Christmas, so Congressman Darren Soto and officials from American Red Cross spoke to Disney about the situation.  Disney ended up offering around 60 families resort stays and park tickets to enjoy the holidays.

This was a really nice Christmas gift for these displaced families for Christmas.  The cause of the fire is still under investigation, with no new updates given at this time.  There were no injuries associated with the fire, thankfully, which was a Christmas miracle.

About Christy Caby

I am a diehard Disney fanatic! I fell in love with all things Disney from an early age and that only increased once I first visited Walt Disney World! It led me to complete a yearlong Disney College Program working at merchandise locations within Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Disney-MGM Studios at that time) and I worked for Disney Parks & Resorts Technology in Project/Program Management. Now I get to write about Disney and help others plan their magical vacations! Disney holds a special place in the hearts of my entire family as my husband proposed there, we honeymooned there, took trips while pregnant with each of my boys and have visited with them many, many times from 8 weeks old through now. One of my favorite memories from each trip is always the look on my kids’ faces the first time they see the castle. I’d love to help you plan your magical vacation!
