Raymond Park is officially open! 🛝✨

We are still buzzing from last Friday’s celebration! A huge THANK YOU to our partners at Portland Parks & Recreation (), the Powellhurst-Gilbert neighborhood, Councilors Avalos and Dunphy, and all the local vendors and organizations who helped us bring Raymond Park to life!

Seeing families, kids, and neighbors immediately activate the new equipment reminded us exactly why this work matters. Play is essential, and every neighborhood deserves a space this inclusive, and vibrant.

The momentum doesn’t stop here: Raymond Park is the first of THREE planned playgrounds we are building...we’re already gearing up for our next groundbreaking at Portland Heights Park in SW Portland later this year! 🏗️💚 Stay tuned for more info coming soon!

We are so excited to be celebrating the first of three playgrounds made possible by our Everybody Plays campaign! This new playground at Raymond Park was brought to life thanks to our donors, and our wonderful partners at who worked dilligently every step of the way to collect community input and facilitate the design process. In partnership we are bringing play to over 1,600 households in the Powellhurst-Gilbert neighborhood!

We hope you can join us May 8th for this vibrant community event featuring:

✨️ Dillion of the Portland pickles
✨️ Candywagon Icecream
✨️ DJ Smokey
✨️ Nicole's facepainting and many local non-profit and community vendors.

See you there! 🌞
