Trafford Elementary Playground

Melissa Daykon is organizing this fundraiser to benefit Trafford Elementary PTO.

Tax deductible

Trafford Elementary School, located in Trafford, PA within the Penn Trafford School District needs a new playground. Our current playground was built in 1999 and it is at the end of its lifespan.

We are working to obtain grant money, but grant money is not enough to cover the cost of the project.

Please look at the pictures of the condition our playground is in. The maintenance department at our district has informed us that our playground is at the end of its useful life.

As of August 2023, our maintenance department had to take down our playground.

Why is recess important in school?

Studies have found that recess benefits students by improving their memory and attention, helping them stay on topic in class, reducing their disruptive behavior, and improving their social development, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Please consider donating to the students at Trafford Elementary.
