“Normally they play in the yard or blacktop, but today is special because we’re all out here building them a new playground,” said Eric Berkowitz, who was helping with the build. He was helping as part of the
Germination Project, an organization whose student fellows help improve Philadelphia’s civic future.
The playground will be used by the 709 students at Antonia Pantoja Charter School. Located in North Philadelphia, most of the children who make up the school are from lower income backgrounds. There are not many safe outdoor spaces for the students to enjoy, and their gym is located in a small, converted classroom.
