Let’s make some magic! ✨

I am so excited to be participating in the 2026 CHOC Walk in the Park presented by Disneyland on Sunday, August 2!

For one morning, I'm trading my usual pace for a magical stroll through Disneyland and California Adventure before the gates even open to the public. There is nothing quite like seeing the parks in the quiet, early morning light, complete with special entertainment, character appearances, and the best community energy around.

But for me, this walk is deeply personal. Both of my boys, Jacob and Matthew, have had surgeries at this hospital. I know firsthand the incredible, compassionate care their team provides. They didn't just take amazing care of my boys; they held our hands through some of our most stressful moments as parents.

Every dollar we raise goes directly to Rady Children’s Health (formerly CHOC) so they can continue providing that same world-class care, education, and research to the two million children who rely on them every year. Our community’s generosity is what ensures other families get the absolute best support when they need it most.

I’d love your help to absolutely crush my fundraising goal! Here is how you can join the fun:

Thank you so very much for your support, your big hearts, and for helping us write a brighter, healthier future for these kids and their families.

With immense gratitude,

Christine Tapia
