Could a playground win this?
Possible fit Medium confidence
Playgrounds are not named, but the fund pays for infrastructure that improves safe access to public open space and has funded town parks. The program is currently paused with no grant rounds offered, and awards up to $25,000 would cover only part of a typical playground.
The Virginia Outdoors Foundation (VOF) may provide funding for studies, planning, concept development, capacity building, programming, and infrastructure to enable safe use of or access to public open space, as well as for land acquisition.
The program will be paused until there is an outside revenue source for funding.
