Sunrise Kiwanis Foundation of Fort Pierce, Inc.

DID YOU KNOW? The Fort Pierce Jaycee Park brings nearly 200,000 visitors every year, including kids, parents, summer campers, school field trips, and more! Located on a waterfront public park, this playground is nearly 20 years old and in need of replacement for the safety and enjoyment of our kids and families.

THIS FUNDRAISER. With your support, we'll bring a new, fully-accessible playground to Jaycee Park for all to enjoy. This park will be the first fully-accessible playground in Fort Pierce, Florida, and is brought to you by a Community Steering Committee backed by Fort Pierce Sunrise Kiwanis, the City of Fort Pierce, Fort Pierce Utilities Authority, and local businesses and organizations like Paul Jacquin & Sons, Indian River State College, Coldwell Banker Paradise, and more. Together, these organizations are raising $300,000 toward the Jaycee Park Playground Rebuild, and we need your help! 

COMMUNITY BUILD. Not only is this effort being led by a steering committee of local leaders, but the new playground has also been designed with input from local students and community members, and will be physically constructed by community volunteers. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make a city playground our very own by participating in its design and build, from start to finish.

THE PLAYGROUND. The new playground will be built with special salt-and-sun tolerant materials. Because of the Community Build volunteer model, all funds raised are going directly to materials required for the playground.

DONATIONS. Any donation toward our $300,000 goal is appreciated and will help bring us that much closer toward our goal. You can host special Donation Parties to raise funds toward this important playground, or just donate directly through this website on your own.

SPONSORSHIP. If you're interested in a larger contribution, you can sponsor a special section of the playground! Stay tuned for a link with details of the sponsorship options, or e-mail us at [email redacted].
