Thanks to Your Generosity, WWFC has Built a Fitness Zone in East Palo Alto

The Wender Weis Foundation for Children (WWFC) seeks to “create moments of wonder that spark a lifetime of possibility.” We believe PLAY creates a spark that can’t be replicated.

And where better to PLAY than a PLAYground?

By providing safe, multi-capable, and AMAZING places to play in an under-resourced area of our community, we can support children’s physical and mental wellness.

The WWFC Fitness Zone at Joel Davis Park, in East Palo Alto, is a new, inclusive, exercise-oriented, playspace that is safe and accessible to all, including neurologically and physically diverse youth with disabilities and/or limitations. At first glance, it’s a playground but beneath the surface, the WWFC Fitness Zone is an essential component to a happier, healthier, safer, more connected community.

Play doesn’t just spark wonder – it sparks a brighter, healthier future!

55% of children

in the Ravenswood City School District in East Palo Alto, are homeless or housing-insecure and have little or no access to safe, age-appropriate fitness. Kids miss out on being kids when they do not have access to a safe play space.
