2024 Give to the Max Day

Friends and Supporters of Kid Zone 

We are excited to announce our campaign to raise $10,000 on Give to the Max Day for the transformation of our playgrounds into vibrant natural playscapes and improvements to our landscape! With your generous support, we aim to create a safe environment that inspires exploration and imaginative play for all our children.

Why Natural Playscapes?

Natural playgrounds offer open-ended play that adapts to children's interests and abilities. Research indicates that kids thrive while engaging in activities like climbing, digging, and building with natural materials. These experiences enhance physical fitness and nurture creativity and problem-solving skills. Additionally, connecting with nature encourages early environmental stewardship.

Our Vision:

Your donations will enable us to introduce new natural playground equipment, refresh outdoor toys, address erosion, replace trees, and revitalize our landscape.  We plan to approach this significant project as a journey. Our initial focus is on enhancing the North playground and landscaping. 

How You Can Help:

As a token of our gratitude, donors who contribute at least $100 in the Give to the Max Fundraiser will receive a bag of Ms. Jill's delicious made-from-scratch granola. For those who donate $250 or more, we will also include a  cotton canvas boat tote featuring the Kid Zone logo.

Every dollar makes a difference! Your contributions not only bring us closer to our fundraising goal but also increase our chances of winning Golden Tickets and other prizes from Give MN. If your employer offers matching programs, we encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to amplify your impact.

Thank you for your unwavering support of Kid Zone! Together we can create a magical space where our children can explore, learn, and grow.
