Denham Springs Elementary in Louisiana

The campus of Denham Springs Elementary was destroyed by flooding in August of 2016. FEMA and the school district funded a new school but not a playground. Daniel Jarrell, Store Manager at Tractor Supply, could see the children playing in an open field with no playground equipment so he contacted the Tractor Supply Foundation which gave a $10K grant to help build a new playground. Now children can swing and slide and climb on the playground set, built by a community who cared.
