Help Us Build a Playground

A fundraiser for A Better Chance for Our Children

$150 raised from 2 donors

$500 goal

I’m Mariann Kenville-Moore.

I’m fundraising for A Better Chance for Our Children.

A Better Chance for Our Children plans to build a safe, fun and interactive playground for our Milford Office. Please help us meet our goal!

· Our Rec-n-Respite program in Milford, DE is in need of a safe, outdoor area for our children to play! 
· Children use play to help them cope with and heal from the most emotionally impactful events in their lives.
· Encouraging children to run, climb, jump, stretch, and swing, allows them to release energy in their bodies which reduces the long-term impact of trauma on vulnerable brains and bodies. 
· Trauma creates feelings of helplessness and overwhelm in children. 
· Play builds resilience by allowing them to regain a sense of control through opportunities to make choices.

About A Better Chance for Our Children

Mission: A Better Chance for Our Children is dedicated to providing permanency for children. We focus on finding families for waiting children, most from foster care and many with special needs. We believe that through education and support, families can develop the skills necessary to provide a stable, nurturing environment for these children. We prioritize this training and support so that waiting children have a better chance of overcoming the trauma they have experienced. We believe that all children deserve a chance to be the best people they can be and, to achieve this, it is in a child’s best interest to be with a properly trained and supportive family.

Thank you for your support!
