ChildLine has announced that The Walt Disney Company has agreed to become a major
supporter of fundraising efforts planned by ChildLine to mark its 20th anniversary
in 2006.

A wide-ranging calendar of activities has been planned by Disney in support of 
ChildLine. This will kick off with 60 Disney runners taking part in the Flora London
Marathon on 23 April, backed by joint fundraising and publicity throughout Disney
via a number of its various businesses.

In 2005, Disney contributed more than $190 million in cash, in-kind support and 
public service air time globally. Disney VoluntEARS, employees who volunteer their
time and expertise in their communities, also contributed more than 442,000 hours
of service to outreach projects around the world.
