Hasbro and the Association of Hole in the Wall Camps Celebrate the Holidays and Their New Partnership.

Funds, toys, volunteers will support children with serious illnesses and life-threatening conditions

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- On Saturday, December 2, the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp in Ashford, Conn. held its annual holiday party for more than 500 campers and their families. This tradition serves as a special reunion for members of the Camp family and a time to celebrate the magic that happens at Camp throughout the year. This year, Hasbro, Inc. (NYSE: HAS) employees were invited to participate in this celebration and to help give gifts of toys and games to the campers. In addition to the fun activities, the Association of Hole in the Wall Camps took the opportunity to recognize the Hasbro Children's Fund for its support of all of the Camps. It was a fun-filled day for all involved, including children and their families, Hole in the Wall and Hasbro staff, as well as Hole in the Wall Camps Founder, Paul Newman, and Hasbro's Chief Operating Officer, Brian Goldner.

This holiday season, Hasbro and the Association of Hole in the Wall Camps have many reasons to celebrate their partnership. The end of 2006 marks the first year of a 3-year grant of $675,000 from the Hasbro Children's Fund for the benefit of all of the Camps. These funds will go directly to help the eight Camps that serve thousands of children every year free of charge. Also, this summer a portion of the grant helped fund seven 1-week sessions serving more than 1,000 children in Louisiana who were affected by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Additionally, Hasbro recently donated over 5,500 toys to the Camps, which has an in-kind value of nearly $72,000.

The Hole in the Wall Camps are the world's largest family of Camps for children with serious illnesses and life-threatening conditions. Children with cancer, sickle cell anemia, HIV/AIDS, and many other conditions come to Camp to experience the simple joys of childhood, without compromising any of their medical needs thanks to the Camps' state-of-the-art medical care. Founded by Paul Newman in 1988, the Camps have served more than 100,000 children free of charge. For more information, please visit www.holeinthewallcamps.org.
