So we have partnered with CASME to put calculators in the hands of our school beneficiaries.

More than 4 million pairs of Toughees are manufactured in Loskop annually.](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/fe85d2_c05beb70b6d74c7e8d1d18c6d7338373~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_980,h_653,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_avif,quality_auto/fe85d2_c05beb70b6d74c7e8d1d18c6d7338373~mv2.jpg)
