| Introduction | Toy Industry Foundation (TIF) is the philanthropic arm of the North American toy industry and was created by the Toy Industry Association (formerly Toy Manufacturers of America) as the first toy industry-wide charitable organization. TIF relies solely on monetary and in-kind donations from toy industry members and the public to address the obstacles which can stand in the way of children’s access to play. While other organizations provide food, shelter and support services to children in need and their families, TIF sees to it that these children have toys and opportunities to play in an attempt to restore both fun and a sense of normalcy to their lives. The Foundation currently fulfills its mission through core programs including The Toy BankTM, public education initiatives, and grants to organizations whose missions are in line with that of the Toy Industry Foundation. |
