About the campaign

The Cooper Foundation is a registered 501(c)3 organization that is dedicated to “helping those with special needs reach their full potential.”

The Cooper Foundation approached the city of Brook Park in October of 2020 about working together to form a pilot program for constructing accessible playground equipment. By constructing the equipment, the Cooper Foundation hopes to bridge the accessibility gap within our regions playgrounds, while creating a space for parents of special needs children to take their kids to play.
