We're on a mission to spread joy. 

A project led by our client exists to create and support joy for America’s youth. Every fundraiser they host empowers kids to pursue and fulfill their dreams. And 50% of every popcorn purchase made on their site goes to the Kids Foundation, which has raised millions for children with special needs with the support of the client's community.
