In June 2002…
We watched our very first bus full of students pull up to Shane’s Inspiration Playground in Griffith Park. The first wave of students with disabilities rushed onto the playground…a mix of laughter, freedom, and fear as some children experienced a swing for the first time ever.
To date, our programs have…
- Transported nearly 40,000 children to our playgrounds and connected thousands of families who have children with disabilities with their communities.
- Transformed playgrounds into classrooms through our education program…reducing bullying and increasing social inclusion for over 150 schools.
- Launched programs in over 20 cities, with requests from over 60 countries who are interested in implementing our education program.
We invite you to…
Dedicate $1 A Day so that students with disabilities can play!
We need your help. Bus transportation is more expensive than ever, and schools don’t have the funds for these programs, despite the incredible benefits of inclusion. As one Special Education Teacher told us, after her bus pulled up to the playground: “You’re our only field trip. My kids won’t go anywhere next year without this.”
For just $30 a month, you can make an extraordinary impact…
$1 + 365 Days = A transportation scholarship for a school
$1 + 365 Days = 10 schools participating in our Social Inclusion Education Program
$1 + 365 Days = 20 Families participating in My Play Club
$1 + 365 Days = Change, Awareness, & Respect!
Thank you for giving the gift of play! Your monthly contribution will make a huge difference!
