Leading Together and Focusing Forward
The last few years have been unprecedented and we are proud to have supported our community in ways that helped those who have needed it most. Whether through the donation of more than 42,000 meals to local food banks…667,000 pounds of toys, clothing, and reusable bags to local nonprofits through the Mickey’s Attic program…or the thousands of Disney VoluntEARS hours contributed by our cast members to further workforce development and the distribution of essential items like books and clothing throughout Anaheim in 2022, so much can be accomplished when we work together.
​
And once again we are focusing forward.
​
We are glad to see the Anaheim Resort Area thriving again but know more remains to be done.
​
We believe in the future of this great city and look forward to even more possibilities in 2024. With continued investment, we can make an even larger impact in our community’s, enhance area growth, and help address some of Anaheim’s most difficult challenges.
