"Somewhere over the rainbow, Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream, Really do come true."

Our adaptive playground project will be funded through private donations, fundraisers and grants.    These funds will pay for universally accessible surfacing and pathways so that children with wheelchairs and walkers can get around safely. It will provide swings and bouncers with neck and back supports. It will include wide ramps instead of stairs so that every child can reach the highest play deck. And it will include special activities to support children with sensory or developmental disabilities.

Playing on a school playground is an important part of growing up, something we all remember from our childhoods, and something that your own children probably do all the time.  Let's give the children at the Linda Nolen Learning Center that same wonderful experience.   The children at the Linda Nolen Learning Center have various abilities and disabilities, some of them are not always obvious. It’s not just the child in the wheelchair. It’s the developmentally disabled or autistic child. It’s the child with Down syndrome. It’s the child with visual or other sensory impairment. For all of these children, we want to create a safe and fun place to play.

Every child, regardless of ability, needs a fun and safe place to play outside.   Your donation, no matter the amount, will help make our playground dream become a reality.
