Building Playgrounds in Rural Colorado

KaBOOM! is excited to announce that we have active funding opportunities to build new community playgrounds in rural Colorado as early as late-summer 2013! We are currently accepting applications through June 24th, 2013 from non-profit child-serving organizations, community groups, and schools that would benefit from and embrace the process of a community-built playspace partnership. If you are interested, but need more time, we would be happy to grant extensions as needed and consider applications for future opportunities as well.

Benefits of Becoming a KaBOOM! Community Partner

Receive a new custom-designed playground!

Engage community members to work toward a common goal.

Participate in a planning process that will help you fundraise, strengthen your community, build relationships, and develop media relations skills that can be used for future community projects.

Establish an ongoing relationship with KaBOOM! through our alumni program and a playground sponsor who wants to have an impact on your community.

***Please note that KaBOOM! will give preference to high-need/low-income communities in rural Colorado that have limited access to play opportunities. Geographic location, access to the general public, ability to move quickly through the application process and religious affiliation may be considered in addition to the standard criteria.***

The initial application and eligibility requirements are attached to this email. You can also submit the application online at application.kaboom.org. Click here for tips on how to make your application stand out from the crowd and for a sneak peek of a KaBOOM! playground build!
