Barbie goes Green at your local Walmart

Barbie is famous for her signature pink outfits, but on November 8th, Barbie is going green at your local Walmart.

Walmart is hosting a fun event “Give Back with Barbie Cares,” and encouraging girls to contribute to a more sustainabla pilot program exploring toy recyclabilitye future and recycling. Children are welcomed to the in-store event to bring and recycle their old Barbie dolls to be used in a pilot program exploring toy recyclability. For each doll donated, Mattel will donate a new doll to a local children’s hospital, up to 100,000 dolls.

The event is a great way to show girls how a little thing, like donating a doll, can become a big thing when we all do it together. There will also be special Barbie-related giveaways. Remember to bring along your digital camera to snap a picture with Barbie (live Barbie in selected stores) and receive a coupon to print a free 4×6” photo from the Kodak Picture Maker that same day.

WHEN: November 8th, 3 PM
