BrickDreams was excited to support our Yolo County partners as they actively use their donations to truly support the kids. A large SUV was filled to the brim with cases of Legos for the following agencies. 14 cases in total! Thank you so much for supporting our charity.

Thank you Yolo County Multi-Disciplinary Interview Center
The Yolo County Multi-Disciplinary Interview Center has been a wonderful partner to BrickDreams. They help get the news out of BrickDreams efforts and have been responsible for growing our presence to new heights in Yolo County. Yesterday, BrickDreams was able to donate 12 cases or 144 cans to several agencies in Yolo County. We are amazed and saddened to realize how many agencies are needed in just one county serving child victims of abuse. Thank you MDIC and all the Yolo agencies who work tirelessly to make such a difference.

BrickDreams donation to CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates)
It was great to recently meet Megan Boespflug, Development Director of CASA and to provide her with 12 lbs of LEGO.

We can’t wait to deliver more cans when you’re ready!

Thank You – Yolo County MDIC
On October 11th, I met with Yolo County MDIC (Multi Disciplinary Interview Center) Program Director Cameron Handley to provide a BrickDreams’s donation of 48 tubes of LEGO (24 pounds). Our donation may be used to help kids who are served through the Yolo County MDIC. Often, those children have been witness to, or victims of felony abuse.
Thank you to Cameron for also for taking the time to give me a tour of the office, especially given you are in the midst of a remodel. I loved hearing of Daisy the Center’s special canine helper! I look forward to meeting her on a future visit.
Special thanks to Cecilia Lopez of the Yolo County MDIC for coordinating BrickDreams’ donation.
To date, we have donated 833.5 lbs of LEGO to charities that serve deserving kids in our community.
