Volunteers help build new nature-themed playground at Grandview Elementary

VANCOUVER – More than 150 employees and clients from an online bank are taking the day off to spend it building a playground in one of Vancouver’s poorest neighbourhoods.

ING Direct clients, employees and local residents are spending a full day building a new outdoor playground at Grandview Elementary on Woodland Drive.

This isn’t just a basic playground. This one will include a hill slide, climbing boulder, water feature, amphitheatre, and fruit trees.

Grandview Elementary is unique in that it provides a safe haven outside school hours to 300 of Vancouver’s most at-risk kids.
