The Recess Project wants to create a more inclusive recess for students with disabilities by donated accessible playground equipment to schools across the united states. The majority of schools do NOT have accessible playgrounds for many students with disabilities, leaving them isolated from their peers at recess. We want to help schools gain access to an inclusive piece of equipment that can start creating an inclusive recess for all! The Recess Project Inc. is a non-profit organization with the goal of transforming public school playgrounds into accessible and inclusive ones for students with disabilities.
The Recess Project's movement is to upgrade school playgrounds by donating accessible playground pieces. Once a public school is selected from our nationwide nomination process, The Recess Project works in collaboration with the school, school district and local community to fundraise for the inclusive playground piece(s) that best fit the unique needs of that school. When the playground equipment cost has been fundraised by The Recess Project, we move on to the next school in need. Our current project is Clarenc Lobo Elementary School, San Clemente, CA 92672
Established in February 2023,The Recess Project Inc. was created to serve the many children with disabilities who are forced to sit on the sidelines while watching their friends play during RECESS, because their school playground lacks inclusive flooring, accessible ramps, or suitable equipment for kids with disabilities.
