Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Chambers of Commerce & Business Leagues, Human Services
Mission: The toy industry foundation's mission is to bring joy, comfort and learning to children in need through the experience of toys and play.
Programs: Tif has created unique national toy distribution programs with court appointed special advocates (casa) and boys and girls clubs of america military services to bring the magic of play to hundreds of thousands of foster children and millions of children in military families, respectively. These programs are supported by tif grant funding, which supports the infrastructure of the toy distribution systems and also funds the training of casa volunteers who serve as one-on-one advocates for children in the court system and help place them in loving, safe, permanent homes.
the toy bank is tif's signature program. Millions of brand new toys are donated each year to the toy bank by toy manufacturers, distributors, licensors, and retailers. Tif distributes them, with logistical assistance from k. I. D. S/fashion delivers, to charities serving children in poverty, kids in hospitals, foster children, military families, and children suffering in the wake of natural disasters. Tif served nearly five million children in need around the world in 2014 alone through 160 charities and 14 umbrella organizations for a total of close to 1,000 children's charities.
