The heart of our work
Social school trip
Your class prepares for a year, raises donations and then builds a playground abroad in a single week.
More about school trips →Since 2004 · more than 150 play spaces in over 25 countries
We build play spaces. Worldwide. Together with young people.
Because childhood is a place worth protecting, we plan and build creative playgrounds with school classes and volunteers wherever children need them most.

How you can build with us
There are no standard projects. Every project grows out of the people who bring it to us.
For clubs & groups
Open participation group
Sports club, youth welfare group or circle of friends: the same idea works for any group that wants to make a difference together.
