As CHOC’s front-line supporters, associates are the cornerstone of our care. From every team, institute, department, campus and clinic, we unite to make our collective care better and bigger—until every sick child is healed.
Between November 18 and 22, you can help brighten a child’s future by making a year-end gift. Whether it’s a one-time or recurring donation, Associate Giving invests in our patients and strengthens the life-changing work we do together.

We make recovery possible.
From researchers who discover novel treatments, environmental services that keep our hospital safe, child life specialists who spark imaginations and every helping hand in-between—No one understands the commitment behind caring for kids like we do.
When children need us most.
As CHOC grows in expertise, talent and reputation, more families come to us with emergencies, urgent needs and the “oops” moments of childhood that only we can tend to. Associate Giving is critical to ensuring that we can care for more children tomorrow.
Our calling and our cause.
Associate Giving leads the charge by declaring that we will give our time and treasure for their childhood. Our donations reach every corner of our health system, elevating each other’s efforts to give CHOC families the chance to go home together healthier and whole.
No sick child should go without.
Each year, CHOC provides over $160 million in uncompensated care to give every child access to the services they need to get well. Associate Giving opens doors to family-centered care that they would not receive elsewhere—preserving our “for every child” standard.
