On Tuesday, February 18, 2025, United Abolitionists, in partnership with Rotary District 6980, successfully donated over 100,000 LEGO pieces to the Children’s Advocacy Center at The Howard Phillips Center for Children & Families in Orlando, FL.

This generous contribution will provide children receiving services at The Howard Phillips Center with therapeutic and creative play opportunities, helping them heal in a safe and supportive environment.

The donation event took place at The Howard Phillips Center for Children & Families, where Rotary leaders, United Abolitionists representatives, and community advocates gathered to deliver the LEGOs and highlight the importance of play in the healing process.

“Play is an essential part of healing for children who have experienced trauma,” said Rotary District 6980 Governor Sonya LaBosco. “By providing these LEGOs, we hope to offer a source of joy, creativity, and emotional support for the children and families served by The Howard Phillips Children’s Advocacy Center.”

A Meaningful Day of Impact

The event emphasized United Abolitionists’ commitment to supporting survivors and vulnerable children, as well as Rotary District 6980’s dedication to strengthening community partnerships.

Children at The Howard Phillips Center now have access to a creative and comforting way to express themselves through play, reinforcing their resilience and emotional well-being.

Thank You to Our Partners

This initiative would not have been possible without Rotary District 6980 and all the volunteers, donors, and advocates who worked to bring this vision to life. Together, we are making a difference.
