A number of organizations participated in the national coloring project, with the Carrie Steele-Pitts Home in Atlanta, GA, the Wade Center in Bluefield, WV, and Clinch Valley Community Action in Tazewell, VA, all taking part. Children were given an opportunity to draw a picture of their favorite toy and provide a short description of why. Some of the submissions included stuffed animals, video game consoles, and portable music players, to name a few. The children's drawing will be featured on one holiday card that will be jointly offered between Vistaprint and Toys for Tots this upcoming holiday season.
"When we got the submissions it was really heartwarming and we were impressed by a lot of the work that the kids had done," said Vistaprint Chief Marketing Officer for North America, Trynka Shineman. "It was obvious that the kids really took their time and put a lot of effort into their drawings. Some kids had a favorite doll, others had electronics, and of course some even had a holiday theme, which was great. We look forward to unveiling the children's drawings as part of our 2009 holiday card collection."
Toys for Tots and Vistaprint have partnered again in 2009 to offer uniquely designed holiday cards for those consumers looking to spread holiday cheer while making a difference to one of the most dedicated, long-standing charities in the United States. The children's card will be just one of a number of cards that will be sold via the Vistaprint website, with 50% of the proceeds going directly to Toys for Tots. Customers interested in ordering Marine Toys for Tots Foundation holiday cards can do so by visiting: www.vistaprint.com/toysfortots.
"Getting the kids involved in the process was something that we were very interested in doing this year. The number of submissions we got shows us that they were up to the task and we're excited to roll out all the cards to the public during the holiday season," said Major Bill Grein, USMC (Ret.), vice president of marketing for the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. "Hopefully we'll be able to raise even more money than we did last year, thanks to all the generous people who purchased the cards and spread holiday cheer with them in 2008."
