Orphan's Benefit is a short theatrical cartoon made by the Walt Disney Company in 1934. The cartoon features Mickey Mouse and his friends putting on a talent show for a group of orphans. The short was directed by Burt Gillett and starred Walt Disney as Mickey Mouse, Pinto Colvig as Goofy, Clarence Nash as Donald Duck and Florence Gill as Clara Cluck.

The cartoon introduced Donald Duck into The Mickey Mouse universe (This being the first time Mickey Mouse and Donald had appeared in a cartoon together), and Goofy, previously known as "Dippy Dawg", uses the name "Goofy" for the first time. It was also the first appearance of Clara Cluck. Horace Horsecollar and Clarabelle Cow also appear. Though Minnie Mouse is seen on the shots title card, she does not appear within the cartoon.

The cartoon was remade in 1941 in color and with the character models updated.The orphans also appear in the forest section of Toontown in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

It is featured on the DVD Extreme Music Fun Volume 6 released in 2006
