 Smurfs Lost Village Pins
2016-2017 “Smurfs: The Lost Village” Pins Gold Heart Campaign
This year Variety has two Gold Heart Pins: Papa Smurf and Smurfette!
The iconic Variety Gold Heart Pin is one of Variety’s most recognized and successful fundraising initiatives. The gold-heart pins are available through retail outlets, movie theatres and select websites. Many of the early pins have become sought-after collector’s items. Past pins have included Star Wars characters (Yoda, Darth Vader, R2-D2, C-3PO), Mockingjay, Yogi Bear, Mickey Mouse, E.T., Shrek, Kermit the Frog, Minions, and Spider-Man.
Sony has collaborated with Variety – the Children’s Charity to create limited edition pins featuring the studio’s blockbuster franchise, “Smurfs: The Lost Village,” which premieres April 7, 2017. Proceeds from the pins, which are for Variety’s 27th annual Gold Heart Campaign, will benefit Variety programs that provide life-saving, life-changing, and life-enriching equipment and services to children who have a disability or are disadvantaged. These collector’s pins will be available for a minimum donation of $3.00 (or 2 for $5.00) in movie theatres and select retail outlets nationwide from December 2016 – April 2017.

Variety Gold Heart Pin Campaign
Variety - The Children's Charity has long been considered “The Heart of Show Business”. Variety finds its roots in the entertainment industry. Variety was originally established by eleven Vaudeville showmen and still exists today for one reason: to help children in need.
Decades ago on Christmas Eve, 1928, a baby girl was abandoned at the Sheridan Theatre in Pittsburgh, PA. The eleven Variety Club members who found the destitute girl decided to underwrite the child’s support and education. Their work has grown exponentially into a worldwide network of thousands of volunteers dedicated to improving the lives of children in crisis. With an eight-decade legacy of caring for children across the globe, Variety – The Children’s Charity has grown to 43 Chapters in 13 countries, raising over $1.7 billion worldwide to assist the treatment and care for children with special needs.

Eeee, I was interested in tracking these down until I realized they were using art from the live-action movies. Just not a fan of that look. :/
