City of Durham issued the following announcement on Dec. 1.
The Durham Parks Foundation is DPR’s philanthropic partner, working alongside us to ensure all children, regardless of ability, have access to fun and safer parks for all.
This year, consider celebrating the holidays by working with DPR’s philanthropic partner, the Durham Parks Foundation to give the gift of play. The Parks Foundation is working on something special with us to ensure all children, regardless of ability, have access to fun and safer parks for all.
In 2022, the Parks Foundation donated $80,000 for an accessible playground surface at Merrick-Moore Park. This upgrade is recognized as the most universally accessible playground surface for all abilities while ensuring safety as well.Looking forward to 2023, the Parks Foundation wants to expand inclusive play options at more Durham parks and they need your help.
