February 19-21, We're helping KABOOM! and the Vegas Golden Knights build a playground for the Donna Street Community Center and the community youth! We're Building Dreams in North Las Vegas. It's important that they see us working together to make neighborhoods better, safer and fun!
In just one incredible day, we're transforming an empty space into a world of wonder at Donna Street Community Center. Partnering with Donna Street Community Center 501c3 and Kaboom! (also a 501c3), we're creating a safe haven where neighborhood children will laugh, play, and create lifelong memories.
The best part? No special skills needed – just your heart and helping hands!
KABOOM! unites with communities and diverse partners to build playspaces in places where we know from data that access has been historically denied. Together, KABOOM! works to ensure every playspace reflects the unique needs, desires, cultures, and strengths of the community. KABOOM!'s work will continue until every child has high-quality places to play, grow, and thrive.

Every Volunteer Makes a Difference
• 1-3 Days of Your Time
• Countless Children's Smiles
• Lifetime of Community Impact
✓ Fun, high-energy environment
✓ Meet amazing neighbors
✓ Free refreshments provided
✓ Be part of something bigger than yourself
✓ Create lasting change in your community
Your neighborhood needs your helping hands! Whether you're a parent, neighbor, or community member, your participation will help create a safe and vibrant playground for our children.
No construction experience needed - just bring your enthusiasm and willingness to help.
Together, we'll build something amazing that will serve our community for years to come.
These 45 volunteers (30 on Prep Day 1; 15 on Prep Day 2) will help unload equipment, inventory materials, cut wood, prep the playground site, sort hardware, and prime our painting projects.
These are the 15-20 volunteers who lead the project teams. We’re looking for people who are good at engaging volunteers, safety focused, and have lots of energy. They need to be available for a 1 hour training before Build Day and will need to be on site at 6:30AM on Build Day!
These 50 volunteers will be helping construct the playground pieces and side projects. This may include putting together a spiral slide, moving mulch, gardening, building benches, and painting.
These are 5-6 people who will welcome volunteers, help them sign a waiver, get a nametag, and direct them to breakfast. It will be important that these volunteers are familiar with using laptops and tablets. We will be using an online check-in system, Eventbrite.

This project will:
• Create a safe space for children to play and grow • Bring our community closer together
• Provide a lasting impact for generations
• Show the power of collective action
There are 3 very VITAL expectations that we have of each volunteer
Committment. We need each volunteer to be committed to the the entire day they are on site. Day 1 & 2 start at 8:30a and ends at 3:30p. Day 3 starts at 8a and ends at 2:30p. On day 3 the ceremony begins at 2:30p.
Time Awareness. We need volunteers that will be registered and in place to begin at the designated start times. Every one will have bathroom breaks and will be fed.
Be a People Person. A team player. A high vibration individual. Almost everyone will be a stranger when we start this project.
