Miami Playground

Carter’s Kids kicked off 2012 with a great new playground at the John G. Dupuis Elementary School in Miami, Florida. This play space was another playground build sponsored by the Lowe’s Foundation and in partnership with Rebuilding Together.

The elementary school badly needed new playground equipment and Carter’s Kids was happy to be able to provide a beautiful new play space for over 400 students.

Once again, we were very fortunate to have the help of the amazing Lowe’s volunteer team made up of South Florida Lowe’s store employees.

At the ribbon cutting ceremony to dedicate the opening of the playground, John G. Dupuis Elementary School principal Claudine Winsor presented Carter Oosterhouse and Amy Smart awards for bringing the playground to their school.
