There are new Wizard of Oz and Back To The Future Funko Pops! heading our way for Charity

In support of National Pet Day, Funko, Inc., announced a partnership with the ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) as part of its philanthropic initiative, Pops! With Purpose. The partnership brings fan-favorite movie pets to Pop! form to raise vital funds for the ASPCA, the longest-standing animal welfare organization in North America.

Fans can contribute to the charitable cause by taking home Pops! With Purpose figures of iconic movie pets like the lovable Einstein from Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment Back to the Future and Dorothy’s pup Toto from The Wizard of Oz.

Beginning with the ASPCA, Pops! With Purpose will now live exclusively on Funko’s direct to consumer channels and Funko will donate $10 for each Pop! sold.

“The ASPCA does such important work in their fight to prevent cruelty to animals, which is a cause near and dear to the hearts of many of our employees,” said Andrew Perlmutter, Chief Executive Officer at Funko. “When fans purchase their favorite Pops! With Purpose pet figures, they’re displaying not only their fandom but their desire to help the ASPCA in their anti-cruelty mission, which we’re honored to be a part of.”
“We are thankful for Funko’s support of our efforts to protect and care for animals across the country,” said Rebecca Frommer, Director, Cause Partnerships & Events, ASPCA. “For every Pops! With Purpose ASPCA figurine purchased, the ASPCA will receive a donation to support our commitment to helping vulnerable animals in need.”

With a proven history of community engagement through the Funko Cares program, Funko’s Pops! With Purpose expands on partnerships with new and existing philanthropic organizations.
Since introducing its Funko Cares Program in 2018, Funko has given back to the community through both monetary and product donations.
