About KABOOM!

KABOOM! is the national nonprofit that works to end playspace inequity for good.

KABOOM! unites with communities to build kid-designed playspaces.

Combined with our decades of experience in community engagement, our playspaces can spark joy and foster a sense of belonging for communities of color — communities that disproportionally have less access to play where they learn and live.

Our Mission

We unite with communities to build kid-designed playspaces that can spark joy and foster a sense of belonging for the kids who are often denied opportunities to thrive.

Our mission: end playspace inequity for good.

Our Impact

Since our founding over 25 years ago, we've built or improved 17,000+ playspaces, engaged more than 1.5 million community members and brought joy to over 11.5 million kids. As we look to the future, we'll continue our efforts to build collective action and community opportunity, spark hope, and enable kids to reach their full potential. And we promise that we won't stop until we put an end to playspace inequity. For good.
