Project Zambi Review

Meet the newest and most adorable edition to the Hasbro Furreal Line of animals, the precious special edition Project Zambi Elephant. This soft, charming toy is full of interactive opportunities from "shaking" your hand and blowing sweet kisses with his trunk, to responding to your touch. Best of all, Zambi is not only a terrific addition to your child's play toys but he also spreads an incredible message. Retailing at $49.99, the artwork used to create Zambi's adorable ears and feet were specially designed by children impacted by AIDS in Africa. Even more special is the bracelet which is included with your purchase that features the same art work. Worn as a reminder that we should be mindful and giving to those who need our help the most.The Project Zambi Bracelet By welcoming ZAMBI THE BABY ELEPHANT into your home and wearing the bracelet included with purchase, you can show your support for Project Zambi. Hasbro has committed to donate a minimum of $500,000 from worldwide sales of ZAMBI THE BABY ELEPHANT to the Project Zambi Fund, part of the Hasbro Children's Fund. With half of all sales directly benefiting support organizations such as Family Health International, African Children’s Choir, Global Action for Children, Global Fund, Hole in the Wall Gang, Keep A Child Alive, Save the Children, SOS Children’s Villages, Chikumbuso Women and Orphans Project and the Children of Uganda.
We recently received our own project Zambi Elephant to love and it's clear to see what a perfect animal this is but in the spirit of this project and continuing to pass on the message and goal of this awesome toy, we will be donating ours to our favorite cause this holiday season, Kids in Distress.It's our hope that you'll buy the child in your life this special elephant and share what an important issue children across the world are dealing with.
