When you walk into the lobby at CHOC, there is an immediate sense that the hospital knows children. Turtle Talk, an experience that seeks to mirror that at the Disneyland Resort, invites children to interact with their favorite green sea turtle from Finding Nemo. Across the way, patients can express their creativity through radio, television and new media at Seacrest Studios. Designed to engage and provide some reprieve from hospital life, these are just some of the unique ways that CHOC provides innovative, family-centered care to their patients. Celebrating its 33rd year, CHOC Walk returns to the Disneyland Resort on August 20, 2023, and we have the latest information on special events surrounding this important fundraiser and how you can support their efforts.<\/p>\n

CHOC Walk in the Park at the Disneyland Resort<\/h2>\n

After a brief hiatus due to COVID-19 and a reimagined experience in 2022, CHOC Walk in the Park is back! This is the most important (and the most magical) fundraiser of the year, benefitting Children\u2019s Hospital of Orange County. CHOC Walk celebrates its 33rd anniversary with a return of the 5K (approximately 3 miles), which begins on Main Street, U.S.A at Disneyland and continues throughout the park and into Disney California Adventure Park.<\/p>\n

Through their partnership with the Disneyland Resort, family, friends, patients, and supporters of CHOC can walk together to support one of the most important pediatric healthcare systems serving the children and families of Orange County (and Southern California). This magical, meaningful fundraiser seeks to raise funds for healthcare programs, education, and research benefitting CHOC.<\/p>\n

For the first time since 2019, the popular fundraiser \u201cCHOC Walk in the park,\u201d presented by Disneyland Resort, returns as an in-park 5K to raise funds for Children\u2019s Hospital ofOrange County(CHOC), a pediatric healthcare system serving children and families in Orange County and beyond. The event, now in its 33rd year, officially returns in the early morning hours of Sunday, August 20, 2023, when enthusiastic fundraisers will begin their approximate three-mile course, starting on Main Street, U.S.A. From there, they will continue through Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park, encountering fun, delightful, and whimsical surprises along the way, all culminating in a festive finale before the parks open to the public. This year\u2019s event is expected to include 350-400 teams with participants from across the U.S, Canada, Mexico, Australia, and Japan.<\/p>\n

As a parent and a nurse, this is one of the most important fundraisers that I support every single year. I have an immense passion for health, particularly the health of children, and I have experienced first-hand the level of expertise and care that is demonstrated by the providers at CHOC. Through this magical partnership with the Disneyland Resort, they have helped to raise $42 million to support children and their families at CHOC. Walt Disney was an active, supportive, caring neighbor and CHOC Walk embodies what he believed and is a continuation of his legacy.<\/p>\n
