Foundations
Boundless Playgrounds 

Boundless Playgrounds® is the first national nonprofit dedicated to helping communities create extraordinary barrier-free playgrounds where children, with and without disabilities, can develop essential skills for life as they learn together through play. 

"Play Together"

Song Inspires Others

Carly Goodwin, a country music singer, was inspired by Boundless Playgrounds to record "Play Together." The song was co-written by Carly's husband Josh Kear, a Grammy nominee and ASCAP "Song of the Year" award winner for Carrie Underwood's, "Before He Cheats." Special thanks to Carly and her team, as well as Boundless Playgrounds' longtime supporter Hasbro, Inc. for underwriting the recording of "Play Together."

We at the Children's Investment Fund believe that all children need to learn in physical environments designed to support their growth. We help non-profit organizations to develop high-quality spaces for early learning and youth development in Massachusetts.

We provide financing and technical assistance for projects as small as repainting or buying new play equipment and as large as building a whole new center.  Got a project in mind? Maybe we can help. Check our
