AEG Tri Team Rallies to Raise Over $16,000 for Children’s Hospital Los Angeles at 2025 Long Beach Legacy Triathlon
AEG employees came together to make every mile count at the 2025 Long Beach Legacy Triathlon, raising more than $16,000 in support of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA). The funds will help advance research and treatment for children fighting cancer, bringing hope to countless families across the region.
This year’s AEG Tri Team included more than 25 employees from across the company, representing AXS, Ontario Reign, Crypto.com Arena, Peacock Theater, LA Kings, LA Galaxy, AEG Presents, Corporate, and Dignity Health Sports Park. For nearly 10 of them, it was their first time competing in a triathlon—a major personal milestone. In an impressive show of determination, every single participant crossed the finish line.
“Everyone joins for different reasons and brings different levels of experience, but we’re all in it together,” said Anette Padilla, Senior Director, Community Foundation, AEG. “My favorite part of being on the Tri Team—aside from racing for a great cause—is building connections with coworkers from across the business. Year after year, it’s incredibly special to share the sport I love with my teammates.”
Over the past 11 years, the AEG Tri Team has raised nearly $200,000 for CHLA, with this year’s contributions bringing them just $5,000 shy of that milestone. More than just a race, the triathlon was a celebration of what’s possible when passion meets purpose. With every swim stroke, pedal, and stride, the AEG Tri Team not only pushed themselves physically, but made a tangible difference in the lives of children in need.
Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, the official charity partner of the 2025 Long Beach Legacy Triathlon, is a nationally ranked pediatric academic medical center the provides more than 600,000 patient visits annually. Collectively, participants raised more than $715,000 on CHLA’s behalf this year—underscoring the incredible impact made when a community comes together in support of a shared cause.
