TORONTO, Dec. 12,
2023 /CNW/ - Spin Master Corp. (TSX: TOY),
(www.spinmaster.com), a leading global children's entertainment
company and Liberty Entertainment Group, Toronto's premier hospitality collection,
today hosted the 11th annual Caring & Sharing event
in support of the Children's Breakfast Clubs.
More than 1,200 students from the Children's Breakfast Clubs
affiliated schools were welcomed by over 300 Spin Master employees
and Liberty Entertainment Group volunteers at the Liberty Grand for

students to help them select two of their favorite toys - one for
themselves and one to give to a friend or family member.
Festivities continued with a dance party, face painting, and
gameplay areas, followed by a seated lunch hosted by the Liberty
Grand.
"For more than a decade, Caring & Sharing has firmly
established itself as a cherished Spin Master holiday tradition,
encapsulating the essence of generosity," said Tara Deakin, Spin Master's Executive Vice
President & Chief People Officer. "We are thrilled to reunite
this holiday season, spreading joy, not just to the young
recipients of the toys, but also to our dedicated Spin Master
volunteers and partners who help this event come to life."
In addition to the Liberty Entertainment Group who have
generously donated the venue, catering and staff for the event,
Magen Boys Entertainment returned delivering entertainment, energy,
and dancing.
"We are so pleased to once again be invited by Spin Master to
their annual Caring & Sharing event," said Zubeda Nanji, Executive Director at Children's
Breakfast Clubs. "The whole notion of Caring & Sharing is
rooted in the spirit of giving, and exemplifies generosity and
kindness, which we are grateful to share with our students and
their families."
