Playground at the International School of Louisiana in New Orleans and the kids absolutely LOVE it! It was a very rewarding experience for me and the other volunteers. I can't wait to go check out the new KaBOOM! Playground at Pontiff Playground. I would like to express my sinsere thanks for all of the volunteers that help build KaBOOM! Playgrounds.

I was so impressed at the organization of the whole thing. As a teacher of young children, I understand the importance of establishing an active lifestyle at an early age. Please let your family and friends know about this incredible place to take their children to. Hopefully, they will be inspired to "spruce up" their neighborhood or school playground or even their own backyard! Thanks for letting me be a part of this wonderful project!

Just wanted to drop a line to say "THANK YOU" for allowing me and Jim to be a part of the playground build in New Orleans. Even though we are avid volunteers here at home (Lake Worth, FL), it usually doesn't require much muscle (just time and brains). As we are also victims of hurricanes Frances, Jeanne and Wilma, we were extremely fortunate to not have the horrific aftermath of broken levies to contend with. As we sat in our cozy livingroom completely appalled at what was happening in NOLA, our hearts ached and were heavily burdened by what we saw on the CNN footage shot and televised. We wanted to do something to make a difference to these people, especially the children. You gave us that opportunity and for that we will be forever indebted. May God bless you richly for the work that you have done for this nation's children and the heart that you have shown by your willingness to be so SELFLESS! Hey Matt!
