We believe in the power of play to bring out the best in every kid. For all our friends, supporters, and believers, you can help create a place on the playground for every kid — a place where every kid belongs, has fun and is a part of the game.
Here are five ways to give us a High-5 and donate and support Playworks in the 5th year in the Pacific Northwest:
- Sign-up for Fred Meyers Community Rewards. Do you shop at Fred Meyer? If so, your rewards card can help Playworks earn more donations. Sign up for the Community Rewards program and connect your Fred Meyer Rewards Card to Playworks #85074. Every time you use your Rewards Card, you will help us earn a donation from Fred Meyer.

Of course, one of the most impactful ways to support Playworks is to donate directly. Your gift of $182 enables one child to experience every school day as inclusive and safe and learn critical social and life skills throughout the school year.
