Eligibility
In 2020, Keurig Dr Pepper & KABOOM! teamed up to offer $15,000 grants toward the purchase of playground equipment. Grantees led their community through a self-guided planning process, using the grant towards the total cost of playground equipment and assembling the playground using the KABOOM! community-build model.
Grantees have up to one year to build the playground and will have the support of a remote KABOOM! Grants Manager and an onsite Certified Playground Installer. Learn more about the community build model in our Build a Playground Toolkit.
Municipalities, schools, and child-serving nonprofit organizations without a playground or with existing equipment that is unsafe for children are eligible for this opportunity.
Through Let’s Play, Keurig Dr Pepper partners with KABOOM! to build and improve playgrounds in disinvested communities. In this way, Keurig Dr Pepper is doing its part to help eliminate the play deficit by making active play possible for more kids. Since its launch in 2011, Let’s Play has provided more than 12 million children with more opportunities to play via safe, accessible playgrounds and sports equipment.
