Medical Compassion Program for Children
GoofyIn 2001, the company donated more than 7,000 trips to Disney theme parks, nearly 300 Disney Cruise packages and nearly 85,000 complimentary park tickets, which amounts to more than $4 million in tickets and in-kind support for compassion programs. In addition, the company provided shopping sprees at Disney Stores and movie screenings around the country.

In 2001 we found a new way to add a bit of Disney magic to the lives of sick children. Disney's Imagineers donated their time and creativity to help a cause close to home: the Children's Hospital Los Angeles. Imagineers designed a completely new look for lobby at the hospital, which celebrates the spirit of children, adolescents and families. The children's cancer unit at Florida Hospital also has a Disney magic touch, thanks to a group of volunteers from Walt Disney World Scenic Shops. CinderellaThe group painted the treatment and procedure rooms to depict a Disney film - the children are transported from the grueling procedures associated with cancer treatment into the world of a Disney animated feature. Although the images can't take the pain away, they do give these children a moment of fantasy to help deal with the realities they face.

...this Company displayed the very best of what Disney is really all about -- people touching people.
