Toys For Tots

The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community in which the campaign is conducted. The program is a national effort administered locally, where toys are collected and then distributed to  children in need. The success of the program relies on volunteer support and community involvement. Six Flags Friends supports this program by hosting an annual Santa Splash Christmas in July event in Hurricane Harbor water park, which includes a toy donation drive.

American Red Cross

Six Flags Friends is honored to partner with the American Red Cross, Greater Chesapeake and Potomac Blood Services Region by hosting an annual blood drive at Six Flags America each October to kick off Fright Fest. Donors who participate in this unique event receive a FREE ticket to Fright Fest.

Six Flags America Ticket Donation Program

Each season, Six Flags Friends donates Six Flags America tickets to charitable and non-profit organizations in support of their fundraising efforts in the Mid Atlantic Region of the United States. Tickets are given to those not-for-profit organizations holding an event that helps to raise money for a specific children's group by way of raffle, auction, or silent auction.  Tickets may also be used for literacy and other educational incentive programs. Since being branded a Six Flags park in 1999, Six Flags America has donated over 20,000 tickets to several hundred non-profit organizations
