Spin Master Corp. is teaming up with Boys & Girls Clubs of America.
The toy and entertainment company is pledging $275,000 to the nonprofit organization to enhance and advance its national arts program under which select clubs will expand their offerings to include more arts-enhanced and arts-integrated programs and experiences. Additionally, Spin Master will make staff available for volunteer work and mentorship opportunities.
“At Spin Master, we believe that every child should have the opportunity to learn, grow and explore through play and creativity,” says Tammy Smitham, vice president of communications and corporate citizenship. “Boys & Girls Clubs of America is focused on providing opportunities for youth and empowering them to reach their full potential and we are excited to support them in the expansion and enrichment of these arts-based programs.”
Spin Master says that its donation is funded in part by proceeds from the sales of its new Artist Spotlight Series puzzles.
The puzzles are designed to highlight diverse artists from underrepresented communities.
