At the LEGO Foundation we believe that local communities have the power to nurture the best in children. Through the collective actions of passionate individuals, driven by a shared vision and a deep understanding of local needs, these communities can make a difference and ensure a lasting impact. We are excited to support more local communities in their efforts to ensure children learn through play and develop holistic skills that will help them to thrive in life.
