Why It Matters

A multi faceted approach to ensure sustainable growth, driven by:

​

• Grants

• Community Donors (both monetary and in kind)

• New Set Sales: Supported by Little Bricks Build Experiences, operating on a "Buy 6, Give 1" model (every six sets sold funds one donated set).

Funding Model

Play is not just a pastime; it is a critical component of pediatric care. Providing building sets to hospitalized children offers significant therapeutic benefits:

​

• Anxiety & Stress Reduction: Immersive, focused building acts as a powerful distraction, lowering stress and anxiety levels before, during, and after medical procedures.

• Restoring Control: In a clinical environment where children have little say over their daily routines, choosing and completing a build gives them a tangible sense of agency and accomplishment.

• Physical & Cognitive Therapy: Snapping bricks together naturally maintains fine motor skills, while following instructions encourages spatial reasoning, problem solving, and cognitive engagement.

• Family Connection: Building sets provide a normalized, joyful activity for parents and siblings to share with the patient, creating positive memories in a challenging environment.
