In June, we received a letter from an AMAZING 7-year-old named Griffin Petti. He found out about BrickDreams and he decided to help our charity.

His school, Palm Beach Elementary School in Lake Clarke Shores, FL did a fantastic job of supporting him.  A box was set up outside the art teacher’s classroom (also Griffin’s mom) to collect LEGO.  The PE teacher collected empty tennis ball tubes for Griffin from nearby courts.  In addition, the school’s art club created a Mondrian-inspired artwork made from LEGO and displayed it at the EG Squared Gallery – they used this platform to bring awareness to BrickDreams. Please see Griffin’s letter, photo and artwork displayed in the pictures below.

We are blown away by all of your efforts!  All we have to say is:  Griffin, YOU ROCK!  Thank you so, so much!

Special thanks to the supportive staff, students who donated, and the art club at Palm Beach Elementary School in Lake Clarke Shores, Florida. It sounds like a wonderful, caring school filled with awesome, talented kids. Thanks also to the EG Squared Gallery for displaying the artwork for a month and thus introducing many to BrickDreams.

We plan to give your LEGO donation away at the end of August. We know that the kids receiving your donated LEGO will truly appreciate all of your hard work, and you will have made their lives much better.

Thank you very much.
