Hasbro and Marine Toys for Tots are teaming up once again to bring holiday cheer to children in need. Together, they aim to support 11 million children this season and invite everyone to join their mission by donating at www.toysfortots.org/support-us.
“At Hasbro, giving back to our local and global communities has been an integral part of our business since our founding in 1923,” said Kevin Colman, Senior Director of Global Philanthropy and Social Impact, Hasbro. “Through our support of Marine Toys for Tots we want to ensure that every child has the opportunity to open a present during the holiday season. We couldn’t be more proud to help them create a world where all children know that they are loved, valued and included,”
Since 1947, Toys for Tots has brought hope and joy to economically disadvantaged children across America. Hasbro, a dedicated partner since 1996, has donated over 12 million toys and games to date, valued at more than $158 million. This year alone, Hasbro has pledged 4.3 million toys to help meet Toys for Tots’ ambitious goal.
“For many children, toys are not just playthings—they symbolize joy, imagination, and a sense of belonging,” said Ted Silvester, Colonel, USMC (Ret), Vice President Marketing & Development at Toys for Tots. “In essence, a Hasbro toy or game given to an economically disadvantaged child through Toys for Tots transcends mere material value; it becomes a beacon of hope, a catalyst for joy, and a reminder of the caring nature of the community around them.”
Hasbro and Toys for Tots encourage everyone to join this cause. By working together, they hope to make the season brighter for millions of children.
This year, Marine Toys for Tots has set an ambitious goal to donate 11M in toys. A partner since 1996, Hasbro is proud to champion this challenge by donating more than 4.3M toys in 2024.
