Let Them Be Kids Canada Day
THE NEED…we believe that everyone should have the right to play. We are addressing the need for an all accessible playground, so all children and families can participate in the fun that a park provides.
THE BIG NEWS…we have been granted a NATIONAL LET THEM BE KIDS HELPING HANDS AWARD!! What began as a long term fund raising project for the schools has been transformed into a 3 month project! The award provides a 50/50 matching grant towards the purchasing of playground equipment, as well as support, training and resources to help make this community project successful. Every $0.50 we raise will result in $1.00 in buying power! We are half-way there!!!
THE ACTIVITY…Volunteers will come together to raise two playground structure in one day! We will rejuvenate the grounds; beautify the areas, and more!
THE IMPACT…The goal is not only to enhance the lives of children by providing a safe and stimulating play area, but also to create a social hub where all residents can connect, to foster pride and ownership within the community by working towards a common goal and legacy, to model active volunteerism, leadership and democracy to our children. The desired outcome is a more tolerant, united, welcoming community, empowered to create positive change with an increased capacity and more enriched fabric.
