Los Angeles Orthopaedic Hospital Foundation (LAOHF) was selected by the Westside based Everychild Foundation as its sole 2006 grantee and was awarded $925,000 for construction of a downtown playground for children with disabilities. The universally accessible playground will be designed to accommodate children with wheelchairs, leg braces, crutches and other barriers that have previously left these special needs children on the sidelines. Sensory-rich equipment will create a fun environment where children with disabilities can interact with their able-bodied friends and siblings.
