Whether you stop in for pizza, games, or a party, your visit will help bring play to kids who need it most. Just let the staff know you’re there to support The Toy Foundation!

Round Up Campaign | All Month Long
Throughout June, Chuck E. Cheese customers will also have the option to round up their purchase to the nearest dollar or donate $1, $3, or $5 at checkout. All proceeds will go directly to supporting The Toy Foundation’s programming.

“We are proud to partner with Chuck E. Cheese in celebration of International Day of Play,” said Pamela Mastrota, executive director of The Toy Foundation. “This campaign offers a fun, accessible way for families to give back while celebrating the power of play — something every child deserves.”

The initiative coincides with the UN-recognized International Day of Play on June 11, a global celebration of every child’s right to play, which aims to raise awareness about how central play is to every child’s development and well-being.

Proceeds from the fundraiser will help expand The Toy Foundation’s reach and impact, bringing toys, games, and play opportunities to children in hospitals, underserved communities, and crisis situations following natural or humanitarian disasters around the world.
