Annual Benefit Gala Raises $6.0 Million for The Toys 'R' Us Children's Fund

Friday April 15, 2005
The Toys R Us Children's Annual Gala was a huge success with a large number of attendees from the toy and baby product industries. The evening was a fun event with live performances by Grammy award winning Michael McDonald and other performers. Guests thoroughly enjoyed a spirited auction by none other than Rosie O' Donnell.

This year, the Toys "R" Us Children's Fund, Inc. will benefit more than 50 charities and organizations nationwide, including the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation and The Marine Toys For Tots Foundation.

Funds raised through the Toys "R" Us Children's Fund, Inc. also support The Starlight Starbright Children's Foundation in creating state-of-the-art playrooms in medical settings across the country.

Kudos to Toys 'R Us for a job well done!
