Chicago artist raises funds for Ukraine by selling Zelenskiy Lego figures

Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, numerous fundraisers have been launched to help Ukrainians in need, from GoFundMe campaigns to Airbnb bookings.

But one Chicago artist chose a singular figure in the crisis and began to design a Lego-style figurine of the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

Although he has no personal connections to the war, Trupia felt compelled to help.

Due to limited supply of necessary parts, the manufacturer will no longer be creating more figurines.

Citizen Brick is not tied to Lego but the Danish toy giant apparently tolerates its small-scale activities, and itself has made a multimillion donation of aid to Ukraine as well as suspending sales in Russia, the Post further reported.
