Lil Jon + Toys“R”Us® Turn Viral Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade® Moment Into Support for Autism Speaks
LOS ANGELES, CA (LA ELEMENTS) 12/13/2025 – “I’m excited to partner once again with Toys“R”Us – giving fans the chance to win my custom jacket that I wore during the parade in support of Autism Speaks, “says GRAMMY and BMI Songwriter of the Year award winner, Lil Jon.
The singer songwriter created a viral moment when he performed on the Toys”R”Us float at the 99th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Through December 26, 2025, fans have the chance to submit entries to win a trip to Los Angeles where Lil Jon will personally sign and present the jacket to one lucky winner. This fundraiser shines a spotlight on autism, a condition estimated to affect 1 in 31 children here in the U.S.
“Lil Jon brought incredibly energy to the Toys”R”Us float this year, and we’re thrilled to carry that momentum forward through this unique initiative,” says Kim Miller Olko, Global CMO of Toys”R”Us. “We’ve proudly partnered with Autism Speaks in the past, and we’re deeply committed to continuing and expanding our work together.
