Going above and beyond for children
As a CHOC Associate, everything you do—whatever your role—helps families navigate the unimaginable: having a sick or injured child.
Philanthropy is so important to achieving this, and has been critical in CHOC’s success for the last 60 years. We are grateful to those Associates who are helping strengthen our culture of generosity through their passionate participation in the Associate Giving program.
As we look toward the next 60 years of our pediatric health system, the need for support is greater than ever. That’s why we are striving for 100% participation in Associate Giving—it all makes an impact to ensure families have access to high-quality care and services that they otherwise could not afford.
Join us! Together, with one heart, in support of one mission, we are lighting the way toward a healthier future.

“I want to see these kids at CHOC grow. I want to see them succeed in life…And I want to see them living through childhood the best they can, having fun and making sure they keep smiling. This is my time to give back.”
Veronica Mercado
Licensed Vocational Nurse at CHOC’s Pediatric & Adult Medicine, Inc.
“I thought to myself, ‘what an easy and great way to help give back to the hospital, community and kids that we’re treating,’ I was all-in instantly. Associate Giving is just such an easy way to contribute.”
Sarah Carey
Charge Nurse at CHOC’s Cherese Mari Laulhere Mental Health Inpatient Center
Your Impact
As a nonprofit healthcare system, CHOC relies on philanthropy to fund services not covered by insurance. Associate Giving plays a vital part in ensuring families have access to high-quality care that they otherwise could not afford. From the little things that help kids be kids to grants for life-saving research, we ensure each dollar received is maximized to its fullest potential – to help our patients reach theirs.
