The pandemic has left so many people in unfortunate situations, and our essential medical workers have been there to get victims\u00a0the care they need. Funko Pop made a line of four Frontline Heroes to commemorate those who are risking their lives each day to protect us in these tragic times. The\u00a0official site<\/a>\u00a0states,\u00a0\u201cIn association with this collection, Funko has made a donation to Global Giving, a 501c nonprofit organization based in the United States that provides a global crowdfunding platform for grassroots charitable projects.”<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Three stunning new Pops were introduced back in March 2020 that were a part of a donation to help the LGBTQ+ community<\/a>. The three Pops were Hello Kitty, Sponge-Bob, and Batman, but instead of their typical color schemes and outfits, the three popular figures were completed decked out in rainbow. In their announcement before the release, Funko stated, “A donation from Funko has also been made to the It Gets Better Project, an organization that uplifts, empowers, and connects LGBTQ+ youth around the globe, in support of this program.”<\/p>\n

Being\u00a0a toy company means there are plenty of toys to be donated, and Funko wants to make sure they give back to their community in any way they can. Each holiday season they provide\u00a0thousands of their adorable figurines to those who can’t afford them.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Smyths Toys teamed up with Funko in 2020 where they designed an exclusive Pop! Vinyl of the lovable brand character, Oscar.

The charity is based in London and they focus on\u00a0giving\u00a0donations\u00a0to fund children’s health research, to provide children with life-saving treatments, and to give comfort where needed.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Though this charity campaign wasn’t organized by Funko Pop themselves, a website that sells hard to find and exclusive Pops<\/a> created mystery boxes for customers to purchase, where 100% of\u00a0the proceeds would go to Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, JDRF, which is the world leader in research leading to a cure for type 1 diabetes.<\/p>\n

Another\u00a0charity that was benefitted through the sale of Funko Pops was Feeding America, a hunger relief organization with\u00a0food banks\u00a0across the nation that feeds those in need. They were given donations from BoxLunch, a popular chain store that sells accessories, novelties, and gifts. On Feeding America’s\u00a0website<\/a>, they explained that “for every exclusive Feeding America\u00ae Scooby-Doo Funko Pop! sold, BoxLunch will help donate $1.50 to the Feeding America COVID-19 Response Fund\u00a0to help provide food and resources to families and children in need.”<\/p>\n
