I chose to take part in a Lego drive because it allowed me to combine my passion for creativity with the chance to positively impact children's lives. Legos had a significant role in my early years by igniting my creativity and fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills. I saw the opportunity to plan a drive for underprivileged students in Venezuela as a means of spreading that same happiness to children who might not otherwise have access to such resources. Beyond just being entertaining, I thought Legos may stimulate learning and encourage creativity in ways that more conventional toys or activities could not. The project's collaborative nature also gave me the opportunity to collaborate with friends and create a sense of community while knowing that we were making a significant difference in lives far beyond our own.
