Could a playground win this?
Possible fit Medium confidence
Playgrounds are not named, but projects that benefit children and youth are eligible, and past YEP awards went to capital grant requests. A grant could pay for part of a playground, such as shade, benches or one play piece. Only nonprofits may apply; schools and educational foundations cannot.
Eligible activities are programs and projects that are serving and/or benefit children and youth ages 0-22.
The following agencies have either been awarded full or partial funding for the capital grant requests listed below their names.
