Denmark, Billund, 1st September 2022 – The LEGO Foundation is donating 100M DKK (approximately 13.6M USD) to support the rehabilitation and rebuilding of the education system within Ukraine and the educational needs of the children and families who have fled to neighbouring countries.

Today’s donation aims to ensure Ukraine’s children have the chance to continue learning during their crucial developmental years while also ensuring that mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) is available to support well-being.
The new 100M DKK follows the March 2022 emergency donation of 110M DKK made jointly by the LEGO Foundation, the LEGO Group and Ole Kirk’s Fond for the provision of general humanitarian aid for the Ukrainian people.

The LEGO VIP Tin Lunchbox is now available to be redeemed on the Rewards Center. It costs 2,500 VIP points and it features the LEGO ad from 1965. Unfortunately, it does not come with a thermos to get the full lunchbox feel. It seemed to have pretty positive feedback when it was first revealed a few days ago so it might go pretty fast. Once you redeem it, you have 60 days to use the code during your next purchase on the LEGO Shop.
