Family Support Programs

Year after year, Hasbro has been recognized by the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption as being one of the 100 Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces. Hasbro’s program is named after our beloved past CEO, Brian Goldner, who was an adoptive parent. He cared deeply about supporting children looking for their forever families and encouraged support of philanthropic efforts focused on children in foster care and adoption programs.

If you work a minimum of 30 hours per week, and have at least one year of service with Hasbro, you’re eligible to receive financial assistance to help offset the cost of adopting or fostering a child.

• Adoption: Up to $15,000
• Foster care: Up to $1,500

NOTE: Service and documentation requirements apply.
