Hi John,
Imagine a playground where every child’s laughter is a testament to a community coming together, stronger and more vibrant. This is the reality you’re helping create with your support for Playworks.
For 28 years, we’ve seen transformative stories unfold. Playgrounds that were once isolated spaces with uncoordinated play now offer positive, inviting, and engaging experiences for every kid, thanks to Playworks and our supporters. And educators have seen first-hand the impact this can have on schools.
One educator noticed that with Playworks at her school, they see, “less children in isolated play or being left out and more of a community working together at recess.”
And that doesn’t end at recess. An inclusive environment on the playground can also translate to the classroom. As another educator noticed, “Students are more likely to participate in class by raising their hand because they feel more a part of the community that Playworks fosters.”
This change isn’t just about play; it’s about nurturing spaces where every child feels safe, valued, and connected, laying the groundwork for inclusive communities everywhere.
