Newell Brands and KaBOOM! Put Kids First

Lawndale News Chicago's Bilingual Newspaper - Education

Volunteers from Newell Brands, Piper Elementary School and the community joined KaBOOM! on Friday, September 21 to transform an empty site into a kid-designed, state-of-the-art playground in just six hours at Piper Elementary School. The new playground, sponsored by Newell Brands, will help make play the easy choice for kids and families in Berwyn. Piper Elementary School’s playground, which is also open to the community when school is not in session, hasn’t been updated in the past decade until now. In July, kids from the surrounding community came together to draw their dream playground. The playground is based off their drawings and will provide more than 600 kids in Berwyn with a great, safe place to play. This playground is part of a broader effort led by KaBOOM! to ensure communities have great PLAYces for kids and families.
