Spin Master and Liberty Entertainment Group, a hospitality company in Toronto, hosted the 11th annual Caring & Sharing event to support Children’s Breakfast Clubs on Dec. 12.
More than 300 Spin Master employees and Liberty Entertainment Group volunteers welcomed more than 1,200 students from the Children’s Breakfast Clubs-affiliated schools at the Liberty Grand entertainment complex for the annual event. Spin Master members teamed up with students to help them select two of their favorite toys — one for themselves and one to give to a friend or family member. The festivities included a dance party, face painting, and gameplay areas followed by a seated lunch hosted by the Liberty Grand.
“For more than a decade, Caring & Sharing has firmly established itself as a cherished Spin Master holiday tradition, encapsulating the essence of generosity,” says Tara Deakin, Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer for Spin Master. “We are thrilled to reunite this holiday season, spreading joy, not just to the young recipients of the toys, but also to our dedicated Spin Master volunteers and partners who help this event come to life.”
In addition to the Liberty Entertainment Group, which donated the venue, catering, and staff for the event, Magen Boys Entertainment returned for another year to deliver entertainment.
“The whole notion of Caring & Sharing is rooted in the spirit of giving, and exemplifies generosity and kindness, which we are grateful to share with our students and their families,” says Zubeda Nanji, Executive Director at Children’s Breakfast Clubs.
The Toy Movement, a Spin Master-led global initiative, aims to bring inspiration and the opportunity to learn and grow through play to children living in challenging situations. Through the Toy Movement and other initiatives, Spin Master has donated more than 480,000 toys to kids globally this year. Learn more at thetoymovement.org.
