The Walt Disney Company announced that it will continue to deliver joy to children’s hospitals across the globe in 2023 by expanding access to innovative programs specially designed for children’s hospitals such as mobile movie theaters, complimentary content access, additional character-themed hospital wear, special deliveries and in-hospital installations for about 750 children’s hospitals and pediatric places of care around the globe.

These efforts are part of Disney’s $100 million global commitment from 2018 to help reimagine the patient experience in children’s hospitals in hopes of delivering joy and comfort to children and their families, as well as the Company’s continued collaboration with Starlight Children’s Foundation to bring the positive power of Disney stories to children’s hospitals.

“Teams from across Disney, including our world-renowned Walt Disney Imagineers, worked with a global network of experts to identify unique experiences we could provide to ease the anxiety of a hospital stay for children around the world,” said Jennifer Cohen, Executive Vice President, Corporate Social Responsibility for The Walt Disney Company. “Delivering joy builds on a legacy that started with Walt Disney himself, who brought animators and characters to visit hospitalized children.”
