In today’s economic environment, securing playground funding can be an obstacle to bringing your park or playground dreams to life, especially when you consider all of the costs associated with building a playground or spray park including site preparation, safety surfacing, and installation.
We’re committed to collaborating with you to design a playground that meets your specific requirements while adhering to your budget constraints. Don’t allow limited funds or the procurement process to hinder your playground project. Despite financial constraints faced by schools, communities, and non-profits, there are numerous avenues for acquiring playground equipment, such as fundraising, grants, or purchasing contracts.
A fantastic playground area benefits the entire community, providing a secure and active environment for children to develop social skills and combat childhood obesity. So let’s work together to secure the playground funding you need to make this vision a reality.
A typical cost break-out is:
1. Equipment 60%
2. Installation 20%
3. Excavation and Drainage 8%
4. Engineered Wood Fiber Surfacing 7%
5. Freight 5%
Funding a commercial playground can be achieved through various avenues, including:
- Grants: Research and apply for grants offered by government agencies, foundations, or organizations that support community development, education, health, or recreation initiatives.
- Fundraising: Organize fundraising events such as bake sales, car washes, or community festivals to raise funds for the playground. Consider crowdfunding platforms where individuals can donate online.
- Partnerships: Collaborate with local businesses, corporations, or community organizations for sponsorship or funding support.
- Community Contributions: Seek contributions from residents, parents, and community members through donation drives, sponsorships, or membership programs.
- Government Funding: Explore funding opportunities provided by local, state, or federal government agencies for community infrastructure projects.
- Community Development Funds: Tap into community development funds or budgets allocated for parks, recreation, or public amenities.
By leveraging a combination of these funding sources and engaging the community in the process, you can successfully fund a commercial playground project that benefits the local community and provides valuable recreational opportunities for children and families.
