Inspired by the play:groundNYC and propelled into action by ChangeX and the LEGO Foundation.

We got a small grant to create this community play event.  Since cardboard is free (thanks amazon) we decided to donate the grant money to help purchase school supplies for those who recently arrived in NY. Let us know if you want to donate (money or supplies) or if you know someone in need.
