Description

Growth Opportunities through Athletics, Learning & Service

Disney GOALS, headquartered in Anaheim, California is a long-standing not for profit program that involves thousands of low-income youth annually through a combination of athletics, after school educational enrichment and community service. Disney GOALS is considered to be by far the largest 'diversity' program involving ice hockey in North America. All program offerings are made available at zero cost to participants. More than 15,000 youth have participated in GOALS programs since 1994. Their services are concentrated in Anaheim, but there are also programs operating in the city of Placentia and San Diego as well.
