What a fantastic day at our Annual Pirate Toy Fund Party & Picnic! ☀️

A huge THANK YOU to The Pirate Toy Fund, Kinecta, and Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation for putting on such a fun and memorable event for our families. The sunshine was perfect, the smiles were nonstop, and the day was filled with laughter and joy.

🍔 Shoutout to The Crew’s Grill for the delicious food and to Kona Ice for keeping everyone cool with those sweet frozen treats — because who doesn’t love a cold Kona Ice on a sunny day?

We’re so grateful to everyone at Pirate Toy Fund for making this annual tradition so special. Until next year, mateys!
