Story

My main aims in life are to unite with others and to help others experience pure joy and happiness. Despite my own health conditions, I have gained confidence to take on an adventure where my passion to perform, my creativity to facilitate fun and my empathy towards others, will benefit East African children as I pursue this extremely exciting experience in Kenya.

For a month next Summer, I will have the pleasure of constructing a playground in Kenya with a team, by morning and using play whether that’s dancing, singing or engaging games to assist these children’s learning and development. I cannot think of anything more satisfying than volunteering for Play Action International, so that I get chance to experience these purposeful interactions and make lifelong memories.

From project play;

Our awesome and dedicated team of volunteers will be heading to Kenya in summer 2025! We will be transforming an empty field at a local school into a vibrant playground so that children can access a childhood!

Your generous support will enable Play Action International to create a legacy of play within the local community where so that we can create an environment where children's development and well-being are supported and children are able to learn essential skills that will allow them to reach their potential. Join us in creating a legacy of play, laughter, growth, and endless possibilities.

Our playgrounds and play programmes bring about remarkable changes:

- 98% of schools report increase in pupil attendance.

- 74% of children give 'The Playground' as a reason to attend school.

- 83% of teachers report improvements in children's attention and behaviour in classes.

Donate to play a key role in supporting our fundraisers to ensure these amazing projects can happen, ensuring that every swing, slide, and moment of fun in the classroom contributes to a brighter future for disadvantaged children at school and in the wider community. We're incredibly grateful for your support!
