A Place to Play

Help me give my students fun outdoor supplies for an engaging playground space.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Ahmad's classroom raised $3,246

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our students work hard and deserve to play just as hard. However, our school is in a non-traditional setting and doesn't lend itself to a robust playground. Our kids make do with the playscape they have and their imaginations, but they play in an empty space for recess with no swings, slides, monkey bars, or any of the essentials, limiting what they can do.

This project will provide our kids with some basic outdoor equipment, including a chime a center, a drum center, giant games, and stepping stones, that will help them express themselves creatively, engage fully, and truly unleash their imaginations.

I can go on and on about how this project will support the kids academically and socially, but ultimately, all kids deserve a fun space to play! Please help me provide this for mine!
