John, when’s the last time you felt truly heard? Respected? Loved? These are all feelings we crave and require to feel true connection with the people in our community.

This is what drives us at Playworks–creating spaces where connections flourish through play. Together, we’re building school communities where everyone feels connected, and your support makes this possible.

"For me [play] is essential in building connections and relationships with students."

WE NEED PLAY

Play is a basic human need. When we play together, we build key relationships that allow us to learn and grow. Our kids NEED play and yet not every kid gets to benefit from play.

Playworks is in our communities making play an integral part of every child’s school day.

WE NEED TO BOND

Playworks coaches like Isaiah Marshall bring energy and connection to every corner of the school. From classrooms to playgrounds, their enthusiasm inspires both educators and students. “Isaiah is the emotional, energetic hub of the school,” shares Program Manager Julian Peota.

WE NEED COMMUNITY

Coach Isaiah is just one example of the many Playworks-trained adults across the country helping children in communities build connections through play.

Imagine what even more leaders like Isaiah can do.

Isaiah connects with over 2,000 students across 4 schools, creating opportunities for growth and connection through play.

He supports more than 120 school staff members, building a community of support for kids.

Isaiah guides 60 Junior Coach students to develop leadership skills on and off the playground.

	“Building connections with kids is what the impact is. I love bridging gaps with adults and kids and helping with behaviors and just playing games.” - Coach Isaiah Marshall

WE NEED YOU
