Smart Start Play Mobile

Help us meet our goal

We’re raising money to make a difference in the lives of young children with a transportable Play Mobile and we’ve set up this campaign with a goal of $25,000.

With your help we will purchase an enclosed trailer and wrap along with age appropriate outdoor play equipment and materials developed to enhance learning through play. The Play Mobile will be utilized at our Annual Week of the Young Child Children's Festival, at local community events, and by partner agencies.

Please help if you can. Every donation makes a difference!
