Our CHOC Community Action Team is proud to partner once again with Project Hope Alliance to support students experiencing homelessness in Orange County. This year, our goal is to not only collect backpacks—but to fill each one with all the essential school supplies students need to start the year with confidence and dignity!
If you would like to contribute, you may drop off your donation to any of our office locations by June 30th or you can purchase off the Amazon Wish List, which will be shipped directly to CHOC.
We THANK YOU in advance for supporting this wonderful cause! 🙏🏼💛💙

Dr. Williamson crushed the Ironman 70.3 in Oceanside on Saturday, finishing in an incredible 6 hours — a 47-minute PR from her first race last year! Proud is an understatement.

Her most meaningful moment of the day though…? Watching her sister, who’s new to triathlons, cross the finish line and getting to place the medal around her neck ❤️

Also, look who showed up to show support…Dr Kennedy!!
