Kids help Children

We are thrilled our friends at Kids help Children are returning for their second year! Last year's event was awesome! Keep checking their Facebook page for more info about this year's event.

KIDS HELP CHILDREN benefiting CHOC Children’s at the Anaheim Hilton is a toy drive and fundraiser with a fun celebrity twist. Catering to children and parents, Kids Help Children is where kids can have a blast and parents can provide their children a precious memory... all while helping children in need in the spirit of giving.

John Patterson and the OC Auto Team's Community Outreach Programs

It is with a great deal of pride that the OC Auto Team, OC Mazda and OC Hyundai, serves the many rewarding communites we call home. With a growing total of 150 employees, working at three Orange County locations, (Tustin Mazda, OC Hyundai and Huntington Beach Mazda) we are committed to serving the needs of Southern California.

~For every car sold, we reserve $50.00 to give back to local charities.

~To date, more than $500,000.00 has been donated, in just 6 years. Our goal is one million dollars by 2014.

~We are strong and passionate advocates for:

JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) http://www.jdrfoc.org/

Children's Congress

Jennifer Heumann and Heather Faland, both of Huntington Beach, were two of 300 children across the country chosen to represent JDRF Orange County at the 2005 and 2007 JDRF Children’s Congresses in Washington, D.C. Delegates go to Washington, D.C., to tell their elected officials and the world what it is like to live with diabetes and why providing funding to help find a cure is so important. Children’s Congress is designed to educate our federal elected officials about the issues surrounding children living with juvenile diabetes. The children selected from chapters around the country have a powerful story to tell, and they are incredibly effective in securing funding for type 1 diabetes research.
