The Philly Specials’ Operation Snowball Surges Forward as Eagles Players Team Up with Toy Industry Partners to Spread Holiday Cheer
Operation Snowball is going strong!
The Philly Specials — a group of past and present Philadelphia Eagles players, including Jason Kelce, Lane Johnson, and Jordan Mailata — have been on an extra special mission this season. In collaboration with the Fund for the School District of Philadelphia, Operation Snowball aims to give every student in the School District of Philadelphia a gift this December.
Operation Snowball is joining forces with global partners, toy companies, and non-profits to realize this goal. Partners include Spin Master, Just Play, Fanatics, Jazwares, QVC, Tarte Cosmetics, Toy Foundation, Amazon Wondery, Amazon Local Good, WildBrain, Five Below, Wawa, Shipmates, and Zippy Shell.
WildBrain also supports the cause by sharing six brand-new animated shorts involving a few recognizable faces on the WildBrain Kids YouTube channel. The official music video they created for The Philly Christmas Specials included Jason Kelce, Travis Kelce, and Boys II Men.
“Operation Snowball is an incredible undertaking that reminds us all who matters most in our fight for, and investments in, public education: our children,” says Kathryn Epps, President and CEO of The Fund of the School District.
