"In honor of the 25th Anniversary of My Little Pony, Hasbro ran the “My Little Pony Project: 25 Ponies for 25 Years,” an international collection of 18 inch My Little Pony figures designed by popular culture’s influential people and organizations. The program was created to celebrate My Little Pony and support the Give Kids the World Village.
In 2008, Give Kids the World president Pam Landwirth joined former Village Wish Children and world-renowned cake designer Sylvia Weinstock for a special birthday party held in New York City. Twenty-five ponies were available for auction with a portion of the proceeds going to the Give Kids the World Village. The auction raised $17,420. In addition, Give Kids the World received a gift of $75,000 from the My Little Pony brand to open the La Ti Da Royal Spa.
My Little Pony Twinkle Hope was a specially designed pony in honor of Give Kids the World. $0.30 was given for each one sold for a total of $14,400 going to Give Kids the World."
