So 10 months later, an outpouring of support from the Near West Side, Clarkies, and Laurel girls and bam! the playground was finally built yesterday and today!! It is looking stellar. Unfortunately the kids can't actually play on it until Friday when the concrete has settled. This, so far, has been a hard task to accomplish because the kids are just so excited about the playground. All that is left to do is to buy swings for the older children. This shouldn't be too hard, as we are almost to our funding goal!
I just wanted to a HUGE thank you again to my community back home. Your support has been amazing. I really can't believe how supportive everyone has been to me in general as well as with this project. Look what we can accomplish when we work together!
Below are some photos of the 2 jungle gyms, swing sets, monkey bars, and mini climbing wall thingie.
love,
