it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Dear Donor,
Thank you for considering funding our Playground!
Project, which aims to create a safe, fun, and engaging outdoor environment where preschoolers can explore, play, and grow. Your support will help provide essential resources that encourage movement, creativity, and social development during playground time.
Outdoor play is crucial for young children, allowing them to develop multiple skills in an enjoyable and natural setting. Through active play, they strengthen gross motor skills, such as balance, coordination, and agility, by running, climbing, and engaging in movement-based activities. It also fosters social engagement, as children learn teamwork, turn-taking, and cooperative play, building important communication and relationship skills.
With your generosity, we hope to provide:
• A sand table, sand, and sand toys for sensory exploration and creativity.
• A beach ball to encourage hand-eye coordination and group play.
• Picnic blankets and towels to create cozy spaces for rest and social interaction.
• An outdoor storage shed to keep materials safe and accessible.
By supporting this project, you are helping us create a space where children can develop essential motor skills, build friendships, and enjoy active outdoor play in a safe and welcoming environment. Your contribution will make a lasting impact on their learning and growth.
More than half of students from low‑income households
