TORONTO, Aug. 24, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - Come join the Power Rangers and the Mega Bloks team as they deliver their "MEGA Mural" to the devoted volunteers, staff and children at the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital.
What is the MEGA Mural?
Mega Bloks created the ultimate (and philanthropic) building experience at this year's FAN EXPO (August 23rd to 26th), by transforming a section of their booth into a community build wall -- the MEGA Mural. Mega Bloks invited FAN EXPO guests to visit their booth to add as many blocks as they wished to the MEGA Mural in order to help build a giant Mega Bloks Power Rangers Red Ranger Mask.
Mega Bloks, an active supporter of organizations dedicated to autism, would like to reward the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital with the MEGA Mural for their dedication to children and families affected by autism and many other disabilities.
Holland Bloorview is home to the Autism Research Centre (ARC) that conducts research aimed at improving outcomes and quality of life for children with autism spectrum disorders. This includes innovative research to understand the biology and symptoms of autism, develop novel interventions for children and adults with autism, and investigate service delivery models.
Following FAN EXPO, media is invited to attend the presentation of the MEGA Mural at 2:00pm (EDT) on Monday, August 27th at the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital, where the Power Rangers will be available on-site for photo-ops.
