Inspiring play through giving back

From the beginning, our core values have always been Fun, Creativity, Imagination, Learning, Quality, and Caring. These are what guide us to make a difference in the lives of children. We work with partners who provide opportunities to learn and develop and give more children access to the power of play.

Through research done by the LEGO® Foundation, we know that play is the brain’s favorite way to learn, helping children develop essential skills like problem-solving, communication and empathy. That’s why we collaborate with other organizations known as our Play Partners that promote children’s right to play, creativity and learning, as well as charities that support children who don’t have access to the resources they need.
 
We also believe that community engagement benefits everyone involved, so another way we give back is through our community engagement program. It gets LEGO employees in on the fun through volunteering initiatives that bring play opportunities to kids in the communities that they live in. We’re really proud of the amazing ways our volunteers have collaborated with members of their community, read our impact stories from around the world.

 

Want to be part of our mission to give back?

Every year around the holidays, we invite fans to take part in giving back by joining our Build to Give campaign. When you build a holiday-themed creation with LEGO bricks and share it on social media using the hashtag #BuildtoGive, we’ll donate one LEGO set to a child in need within our network of hospitals, children's homes and underserved communities in 25 countries all over the world.
