Jonnie’s Dream Playground at Southside Park

Every child, regardless of abilities, deserves a safe place to play.

Jonnie and Friends Reach for the Stars is a fundraising effort to restore the Universal Universe playground in Sacramento’s Southside Community Park. Replacing worn equipment with fun, all-inclusive play structures and adding new programs and activities that will allow kids of all abilities to play together, make friends and reach for the stars. 

In the City of Sacramento alone, there are a total of 11,611 children and young people with disabilities. 
These children all benefit from having a fully accessible, maintained park where they can play, dream, and meet new friends. 

Together, we can build an inclusive playground that provides a place where children of all abilities can participate, learn and grow. And have fun while playing with their peers.
