Help Us Build a Safe and Accessible Playground in New Orleans
on Tuesday, March 11, 2014

Since 2000, the Academy’s annual volunteer build project—the award-winning Safe and Accessible Playground building program in partnership with KaBOOM!—has provided an opportunity to visibly support playground safety and give something back to the communities we serve by helping with the construction of a safe and wheelchair-accessible play structure for children.

During the AAOS 2014 Annual Meeting, hundreds of volunteers will gather to help transform one special community in New Orleans.

Help make that dream playground possible. Become a sponsor of the 2014 Safe and Accessible Playground Build or register as a Build Day volunteer!

Details about the 2014 build site and logistics to be announced in the fall.

AAOS 2013 Safe and Accessible Playground Build

 

	Chicago: Tuesday, March 19, 2013 Hundreds of AAOS members and volunteers helped transform the Faith Community of Saint Sabina in the Auburn-Gresham neighborhood of Chicago, Ill., and made the gift of a Safe and Accessible Playground Build a reality for a very deserving community so that children with and without disabilities can play safely together. For the past 14 years, the Academy has held a one-day volunteer build to kick off our Annual Meeting. We would like to continue to carry on that tradition with your help and could not do any of this without the generous support from our industry partners and the labors of our volunteers. Site beautification, clean up and other rewarding projects also are available for children of all ages and abilities! Thank you to the sponsors who have already pledged their support for the 2013 Safe and Accessible Playground build.
