MONTREAL, Oct. 4, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - Come join the Mega Bloks team as they deliver their "MEGA Mural" to the devoted volunteers, staff and children at the Miriam Foundation.
What is the MEGA Mural?
Mega Bloks created the ultimate (and philanthropic) building experience at this year's Montreal Comiccon (September 14th to 16th), by transforming a section of their booth into a community build wall -- the MEGA Mural. Mega Bloks invited Comiccon 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 Miriam Foundation with the MEGA Mural for their dedication to children and families affected by autism and many other disabilities.
The Miriam Foundation believes that every person deserves quality professional services, family support, social connections and the opportunity to realize his or her unique potential.
Media is invited to attend the presentation of the MEGA Mural at 1:30pm (EDT) on Friday, October 5th at Miriam Foundation, where MEGA Man (Mega Bloks mascot) will be available on-site for photo-ops with children and parents from the foundation.
