Help JetBlue and KaBOOM! bring play back to Sandy-impacted communities

Posted by KaBOOM! on February 4, 2013

The days, weeks and months of recovery following a hurricane can take a severe toll on a community, particularly on the children who live there.

As part of JetBlue’s rebuilding efforts, they are partnering with KaBOOM! to bring the joy of play back to communities that have suffered from the devastating effects of Superstorm Sandy.

KaBOOM! is actively outreaching to connect with child-serving organizations that have been impacted by the storm to become KaBOOM! Community Partners for JetBlue’s three (3) playground build projects in 2013.

Eligible organizations include the following:

Those who experienced damage to the physical infrastructure of the current playground or building;
Those whose population served was directly impacted by storm (loss of home, weeks without power, displaced from school);
Those who experienced an increase in services provided to a broader group of children resulting from needs of the community occurred; or
Any group that can demonstrate a physical, financial or social/emotional impact from the storm.

Help kids in these communities begin the healing process and get back to the important business of being kids.
