Save the Children Donation
In addition, VTech Electronics is partnering with Save the Children Australia to support families in need during this challenging period. Through their social media channels, LeapFrog and VTech encourage children or parents to create a drawing that sends a message of hope and positivity to families in need. For every drawing shared, VTech will donate 1 toy to Save the Children Australia, up to $50,000 worth of VTech & LeapFrog toys. These toys will be distributed to vulnerable families as part of Care Packages provided by the organization to ensure that children are kept healthy, educated, and safe, while they endure extended periods of home isolation in Australia.
