Playgrounds in Conflict Zones
Posted: 28 May 08 4:48 PM

An interesting organization that builds playgrounds in conflict zones:

Reynolds, a former forestry worker, founded Playground Builders in 2006. It’s a Whistler-based organization that forms partnerships with non-governmental organizations to establish children’s playgrounds in conflict zones. The organization has established 20 playgrounds to date in places such as Baghdad, Jenin and Ramallah and is now looking to establish another in Afghanistan.
