BrickDreams could never make its distributions without a ready supply of tennis ball cans. This summer, we’d like to thank Doug and Chrys Atkinson of Sparetime, Inc. There are many junior tennis tournaments in Northern California during the summer months and Coach Doug and Mrs. Chrys Atkinson were kind enough to help us get the cans used at these tournaments.  So far more than 30 cases have been donated.  Wow, that’s a lot of cans!

Nancy and Kevin Lentsch donated a large number of completed LEGO structures to BrickDreams that were part of Kevin’s collection.  He has been collecting and building for more than 26 years and his wife, Nancy, was the one to give him many of the sets during their marriage.  The sets are complete and many have instruction books so we are hoping to be able to donate them to some of our partners as intact sets.  Thank you Lentsch family for your generous donation.  Here is one of the many sets they gifted us.

Thank you Diana Thorndup of Folsom. The Thorndup Family donated a LEGO friends set. BrickDreams is excited to get your generous donation in the hands of children who will thoroughly enjoy it.

Thank you to the Donn Kanagaki Family of El Dorado Hills for your generous donation of LEGO to BrickDreams.  The Kanagaki sons are now adults and allowed their collection to help the kids of BrickDreams.  Thank you for making a difference!

The McNulty Family was inspired to gather LEGO for BrickDreams after seeing the recent article on us in the El Dorado HillsTelegraph.  They reached out to friends via social media and received a number of generous donations, including Duplo which is still desperately needed by BrickDreams.  Thank you McNulty’s for gathering so many generous donations and for acting so quickly to get them to us. 

We were so excited to deliver 100 tennis balls to WEAVE in Sacramento, CA.  Megan Laurie, Director of Development, kindly accepted them on behalf of all the kids who can benefit from them.

Thank you to Sonny and Jeninne Ledford of Sierra College Storage in Roseville, CA. They kindly donated a month of storage as we actively work to get the LEGO out of storage and we have into the hands of children. Thank you so much for your generosity.

We’ve received a lot of tennis ball cans lately so we’d like to express our thanks.  Thank you to Folsom Lake Jr. College Mens and Womens Tennis team, Broadstone Racquet Club and Rio del Oro Racquet Club for not only recycling your tennis ball cans but helping BrickDreams in the process.

A big box of beautifully organized LEGO arrived from today from the McNeil Family of Redwood City, CA.  Thank you so much for donating to our charity.  We were able to immediately use them!

We’d like to extend our appreciation to the Farrell Family of Orland Park, IL.  They sent us a box filled with LEGO!  We’re happy to say we were able to quickly get your donation to into the hands of a local agency who in turn distributed them to deserving kids.
