How to Help
Our Goal
Our goal is to raise $2 million, based on the cost of similar inclusive playground projects—such as Kayla’s Playground in Franklin, WI. Because of initial campaign support from organizers, we have secured a foundational gift and are on our way!
Their planning process, vendor partnerships, and total investment helped shape our expectations and guide our ask. This investment allows us to think big—not just about play, but about setting a precedent for acceptance and belonging.
Donations will go directly and fully to Stella’s Playground and are 100% tax-deductible.
Our Progress
So far, we’ve raised $1,193,425 toward our $2,000,000 goal!
