    Overview

    A “LEGO drive” is a really fun and easy community service project that individuals, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, schools, teens, clubs, and church groups can do to help the environment and others.

    LEGO has made over 1.1 trillion of them wonderful pieces, and continues to produce well over 60 billion more per year.  Unfortunately, many of these pieces get stuck in storage bins or end up landfills. LEGO pieces can’t be recycled, but they can be reused endlessly, and can bring so much joy to others. There are countless parents and kids who would really love to see their precious Lego pieces reused by someone less fortunate.

    Please visit our website for more information and to participate in our Community Service Project. We find homes for these pieces, ranging from orphanages in third world countries (via missionaries), Title 1 schools that don't have funds to buy them, and even specific hospitals for children with Leukemia or even people waiting on heart transplant lists. We even did a press release with photos called: Teens Lead Charge in Plastic Waste Reduction with LEGO® Recycling Initiatives for Earth Month
