Restoring and Repairing

We restore and repair the playgrounds we receive: ordering new parts, fixing up the old ones, and putting every washer and bolt into place to ensure they last for years to come.

Build Site Selection

We build playgrounds for schools, community centers, orphanages, and churches: anyone offering a positive environment where children could learn and grow.
