About Us
In 2018, Disney announced a five-year, global commitment of $100 million to help reimagine the patient journey in children’s hospitals. Using the powerful combination of our beloved characters, storytelling and legendary creativity, teams across the Company, including Disney Imagineers, are working with patient care experts to create customized distinctly “Disney” experiences designed to inspire young patients and their families and ease the stress of a hospital stay.

Walt Disney would visit with children in hospitals, sometimes accompanied by Disney characters and animators to bring children moments of joy.
