Orange County United Way is gearing up for our centennial, coming in 2024. In preparation, we’re embarking on our Journey to 100 as we celebrate 100 years of purpose and set a strong foundation for the next century of caring for one another “The OC Way.”

To honor and recognize our county, Sue Parks, Orange County United Way’s President and CEO, is going on a 3-mile casual walk in 33 of our cities. Our 34th and final walk will be a symbolic 1-mile route in Anaheim, Orange County’s first city, resulting in 100 collective miles.

Our plan is to walk one city per month beginning in February 2022 and ending in November 2024. Together, we will learn more about each city and how United Way has made an impact in our community over the years, all while enjoying good weather and quality company.
