Spring is coming! Let the toy experts at Funky Monkey put together an Easter or Passover Basket/Bundle for the children in your life! Tell Funky Monkey your child’s interest, and they will create a unique gift basket for you. In addition, Funky Monkey will generously donate 10% of sales of baskets and bundles to the Greenwich Police Department Scholarship Fund. In-store purchases of baskets/bundles will count towards the donation as long as the customer mentions the GPD Scholarship. Online purchases will have an opt-in checkbox at checkout if they would like proceeds to go towards GPD. These curated baskets, starting at $50, can be individualized by any age, boy/girl, and gift preferences.
“Greenwich has such a strong sense of community, and we are very appreciative of those partnerships that make our town so special, including the support from our friends at Funky Monkey,” said Chief of Police James Heavey. “It is fitting that a store that obviously looks to bring joy to all children is also honoring the Greenwich Police Department’s 125th Anniversary with contributions to the GPD Scholarship fund – our kids are our future!”
“We are excited about partnering with the Greenwich Police Department and supporting their commitment to providing scholarships for children of Greenwich Police Officers. Since our opening in 2019, the residents of Greenwich have welcomed us with their support and encouragement. Being able to in turn support the children of the police force of Greenwich is just our way of saying Thank You to the Town and to the Greenwich Police Department,” Jared Greenman said, owner of Funky Monkey.
Funky Monkey offers complimentary gift wrapping and curbside pickup in front of their store at 86 Greenwich Avenue. FaceTime appointments may also be scheduled by calling 203-769-5884. Funky Monkey is open Monday – Saturday from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm and Sunday from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm.
