Quote: "We are delighted to present the second drop of the #UKRAINEinLEGObricks initiative, which presents Ukraine's landmarks to the world. It includes five new models: the Golden Gate of Kyiv, the Khan's Palace in Bakhchysarai, Pidhirtsi Castle, the Odesa National Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre, and Mykolaiv Astronomical Observatory."
Details: These unique construction sets are not for sale, but you can win one by making a donation of US$24 or more towards rebuilding a school in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. Fifteen sets – three of each type – will be raffled off in total.
The fundraising campaign will run from 20 May to 20 June. All funds raised will go towards rebuilding a secondary school in the settlement of Velyka Kostromka (Dnipropetrovsk Oblast) which was hit by a Russian missile on 11 October 2022.
Lego creators from four countries took part in the project: Eric Lowe and Mark Segedi from the United States, Daniel Seidl from Germany, Maciej Kocot from Poland, and Oleksandr Yermolaiev from Ukraine.
#UKRAINEinLEGObricks is a continuation of the #LEGOwithUKRAINE project, which featured Mother Ukraine (Kyiv), the Mariupol Water Tower, and Swallow's Nest (Yalta, Crimea). The first drop raised UAH 15 million (US$377,000) towards rebuilding Ukraine.
Background:
- In November 2023, the United24 platform launched a raffle for models of Ukrainian landmarks by Lego Creators, with all proceeds going towards rebuilding houses in Kyiv Oblast.
