FAIRFIELD, NJ (June 21, 2017) – Product development and direct response marketing company, Tristar Products, Inc., has donated nearly $3 million dollars worth of Bandaloom Toy looming kits to the Toy Industry Foundation.

The fun, do-it-yourself looming kits will bring joy to children across North America who are impoverished, underserved, ill, and facing other forms of tremendous hardship.

“On behalf of the entire DR TV team at Tristar, I first want to thank the Toy Industry Foundation for their larger-than-life efforts to bring smiles to the faces of so many children experiencing devastating misfortune,” said Keith Mirchandani, President and CEO of Tristar, Inc. “As one of the largest direct response marketers in the product invention industry, it is our duty to extend whatever kindnesses we can to the community. We are humbled to have been blessed with unparalleled success from our highly rated, award-winning products that makes large donations like this one possible.”

The Toy Industry Foundation distributed more than 300,000 individual kits to various children’s charities in Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, and Pennsylvania. Each Bandaloom looming kit includes everything a child needs to design his or her own custom-made jewelry, wristbands, and looming designs. Thousands of young people who have recently overcome or who are suffering currently through intense adversity will receive a kit as a gift for a birthday, holiday, or other special event.

“We are grateful to receive this extremely generous donation from our new donor, Tristar Products,” says Jean Butler, TIF executive director. “Thousands of children across the country will benefit from receiving a Bandaloom kit, making play possible for many who have no toys to call their own or who are suffering from adverse circumstances beyond their control. We appreciate Tristar Products’ generosity and look forward to building our partnership with them in the future.”
