Ole Kirk Christiansen founded the LEGO® Company in 1932 and defined the set of values which have characterized the company since. ”Only the best is good enough, for children deserve the best”.

The LEGO Foundation wishes to inspire and develop children and young people into dedicated members of society through fun, learning and high quality creative play activities. The LEGO Foundation believes that the future of the poor and endangered children of the world can be changed for the better this way.

• Contributes with activities that offer children and adults good experiences and insight into the many creative learning opportunities inherent in the LEGO products.
• Enhances children’s education via research programs, new, systematic learning materials and supplementary education of teachers in developing countries.
