Look what I found in my mailbox the other day - a real diploma for all of you who helped to grant a wish of Piotrek!

Feel free to download it and use as you like - it’s yours!

Wooohoo! We did it! We did it! We granted a wish!

Last sunday, our action found it’s happy ending. During the last month, Mam Marzenie foundation worked hard to grant a wish of 10-years old Piotrek, which was to get the complete collection of LEGO City sets. Thanks to your donations and thanks to sponsors, foundation raised a lot of money. And thanks to Misterzumbi and all good people at LEGO, a huuuge parcel full of LEGO sets arrived from Billund!

When everything was ready, a team made of foundation’s volunteers and LUGPol member Rumcajs started the last undercover task.

As you know, the best presents are surprise ones, so with the help of the parents, kids was sent to granma for some time. When they returned home, they could hardly enter their room, now filled with LEGO sets. The joy and emotions of this moment can not be described.

And then, the fun begun. First - moving the boxes to the attic, where was enough empty space. Hopefully, there were some strong and sprightly volonteers to help!

And finally - building. As you can see on the pictures, Piotrek was not the one who forgot about the whole world!

I would like to express my greatest respect to volunteers: Joasia, Michał, Marcin and Rumcajs (Michał) and all the staff of Mam Marzenie foundation. Great thank-you goes to LUGPol members, readers of Klocki, LEGO Billund staff, sponsors and all other good people I do not know about who helped this dream come true. You rock people. You really do….

And, like this was not enough happy news, according to our sources, Piotrek’s test resuts are good, he feels better and everything seem to head back on track! Piotrek, if you are reading this - we wish you to get healthy soon and are looking forward to seeing your LEGo City and in the future - your own creations!

Head over to our gallery to see all the photos taken on that special day.

Mam Marzenie is an organization granting wishes to Polish children living with life threatening conditions. Inspired by the story of Chris Grecius - the Arizona boy who’s wish to become a state trooper started the wish granting movement in the US - this foundation wants to bring in the life of the sick children and their families a ray of hope and joy in the tragic times of the ilness of a child.
