Want to transform the look and feel of your school playground, but don’t have the funds to dedicate to it? Rhino Play is a proud partner of FundEd, who can help make your playground dreams a reality.
At Rhino Play, we believe that all children have the right to a fun and safe outdoor play environment, where they can learn, socialise and enjoy themselves. However, we also know that not all schools can dedicate large amounts of budget to transforming and improving their outdoor play equipment. That’s where FundEd comes in.
FundEd is an organisation specialising in helping schools find and apply for grants or fundraising opportunities to successfully pay for and install outdoor playground equipment.
If your school requires a new playground but doesn’t have the budgets or funds available for playground design and planning, contact us and we will be happy to help point you in the direction of FundEd, helping you get the budget for the playground your staff and students deserve.
Dubbed the go-to experts for school fundraising and grant applications, FundEd can help most schools generate the additional funds and income needed to create a stimulating, fun and challenging environment for children to thrive in.
