Final Giving of 2025

If you read the first update on our giving from 2025, you saw that we sent some LEGO Speed Champions sets to a friend of mine with a kid in the hospital. Sadly, this friend’s kid spent Christmas and New Years in the hospital and will be there for quite some time afterwards. To help support some of the efforts that hospital does to help out kids, Bricks for Bricks donated $483 to Stanford Children’s Hospital in California.
It was great in the past to know where donations were going in advance, but it worked out this year to be able to support those who needed it the most at the right time.

Thanks for helping to give this year and here’s to some happy building in 2026!

Giving Campaign - Brick Chalk Guy - 28 November through 20 September 2024

We donated $460 worth of LEGO sets to the Chalkguy LEGO Service Project at the end of 2022. We heard from Ben Glenn and he asked if we’d be willing to run another campaign to support his organization. Our answer… of course!

From 28 November 2023 to 30 June 2024, 15% of the profits from the Bricks for Bricks Bricklink Store will support the Chalkguy LEGO Service Project. You can learn more about this project at their site here.

We look forward to sending them some sets in 2024. Thank you for your support!

Happy building!

$182 to Creations for Charity! Thank You!

We collected 15% of our profits from 1 July to 27 November 2023 which resulted in $182 for Creations for Charity. Overall, Creations for Charity raised $33,265 and donated sets to kids in 17 countries around the world. It was just shy of their 2021 record of $35,000, but still very impressive. You can see some of the results as the Beyond the Brick team helped to give away some of the sets purchased from the funds raised.

Thank you to everyone who supported Bricks for Bricks and allowed our continued giving!

Happy building!

New Giving Campaign - Creations for Charity - 1 July to 27 November 2023

Okay, this isn’t a new place, but the Creations for Charity drive needs our help. They had steadily increasing amounts raised in past years and then last year they saw a drop in donations. I’m not sure if 2021 was a fluke or what, but let’s make sure this year, they raise more than last year. So 15% of the profits from the Bricks for Bricks Bricklink store will go to Creations for Charity. We’ve supported them before and it’s time to do it again.

In case you aren’t familiar, Creations for Charity was formed in 2009 by AFOL Nannan Zhang. It started the first year with a few donations locally and has since skyrocketed to what it is today. The Beyond the Brick team is involved with their annual 24-hour live stream to raise funds.

So thank you for your support and we look forward to being able to help them give lots of LEGO sets to kids around the world.

Happy building!
