Donate LEGO® BricksWhy LEGO® Play Matters
LEGO® isn’t just about building structures — it’s about building brighter futures. Donated bricks provide hands-on opportunities for kids to grow, express themselves, and experience joy. Whether it’s through creative projects, teamwork, or tackling challenges, LEGO® play helps youth develop skills that last a lifetime.
Encourages Creativity
LEGO® inspires young minds to dream big, explore ideas, and bring their imagination to life — one brick at a time. From building castles to designing their own inventions, children build confidence and creative problem-solving abilities along the way.
Builds Problem-Solving Skills
Planning and building with LEGO® challenges kids to think critically, overcome obstacles, and find solutions — all while having fun. These early problem-solving experiences help youth build resilience and confidence in their own abilities.
Supports Emotional Well-Being
For children facing adversity, creative play provides a safe space for expression. LEGO® activities reduce stress, spark joy, and help kids build confidence, offering small but meaningful moments of connection and accomplishment.
Provides Educational Value
LEGO® play builds valuable life skills like teamwork, spatial reasoning, and STEM learning. From simple shapes to complex models, these activities support academic growth while keeping learning hands-on, fun, and engaging.
