We love visiting Disneyland on any normal day, but we especially love visiting when it can benefit a charity.

Disney works with many different charities, such as Give Kids The World, to help support them in their important missions. If you’re looking for a fun day in Disney that will also help benefit a charity organization, the CHOC Walk has officially set its 2024 date!

Disneyland Resort’s popular 5K event, CHOC Walk in The Park, is returning again this year and has set its date — Sunday, July 21st, 2024! This charity walk benefits the Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) and has been a tradition for 32 years.

This is the first time the event will take place in July, but fundraisers will still travel on the 3ish-mile course through both parks, coming across exciting surprises before the parks open to day guests. Based on previous counts, this event is expected to bring in 350-400 teams, including participants from the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, and Japan!

So why move the event to July? Jessica Miley, senior vice president and chief development officer for CHOC, said, “By moving the event to late July, we hope to help families join us by avoiding conflicts with back-to-school activities or planned August family vacations,” as well as help them avoid the higher possibility of rain or storms.
