The LEGO Foundation Invites Public To Join #MessagesOfHope Installation

Next Saturday, December 14th, the LEGO Foundation will set up a one-day pop-up installation inside at the Holiday Market at The Oculus where people of all ages are encouraged to write, draw and create messages of hope to children who have been impacted by the humanitarian crisis in East Africa.

The purpose of the installation is not only to bring encouragement and support to children, but also to shine a spotlight on the lack of access to proper education experienced by displaced children of the "forgotten crisis" in East Africa.

Related sister installments will also be in place in London, Copenhagen, and Geneva, during the 1st Global Refugee Forum.
