Building Playgrounds and Communities Grant Program


The newly completed fully accessible Hillhurst Elementary Playground.
October, 2011


The Building Playgrounds and Communities Program is ready to build another set of playgrounds in Fall 2011. There are 10 playgrounds that will be built throughout September and October. We have had a very successful year of building 23 playgrounds in 2011. These playground projects would not be possible without funds from an anonymous donor and various corporations and organizations.
