Kimco and Second Chance Toys Partner for Earth Day

Guest blog post from Madeline Cohen of Kimco Realty:

This year, Earth Day brought Kimco the chance to give back — not only to the environment, but to children in need. Every year, perfectly usable but unwanted plastic toys are forgotten or thrown into landfills, where they take up space and don’t biodegrade. While they are in good working condition and show little sign of wear, they get tossed out, almost always in ways that do harm to the planet.

Make a Difference this Earth Week

Please help and join Kidville in keeping plastic toys from landfills by donating them to children in need.

Simply share a photo of your child with their favorite toy and invite friends to join in using #ToyRescue. For every photo shared, one toy will be donated to a deserving child!
