There's a role for you in this work. Tell us how you'd like to help.

Three Ways to Help

Every Role Matters

Whether you can give a Saturday to dismantle a playground in your city, travel abroad to rebuild it for a community that needs it, or simply know of a place that deserves one — there's a place for you in this work. Tell us how you'd like to get involved and we'll reach out with next steps.

We need people who aren't afraid to get their hands dirty. Teardown days are how everything starts — we carefully disassemble donated playground equipment at U.S. locations, document every piece, and prepare it for shipping overseas. No experience required, tools provided, lunch included. You'll leave knowing exactly which community your Saturday helped serve.

Mission trips are where the real magic happens. You'll travel with a team, work side-by-side with local community members, and watch an empty lot become a playground over the course of a week. No construction background needed — just a willingness to show up and work hard. People who come once almost always come back.
