A play day open to girls ages nine through 17 is being organized in Boyle Heights.

With the help of Nike and Play Equity Fund, this community event is a great opportunity for someone who is interested in sports, and most importantly, just wants to have fun. Guests will also be able to try the variety of different sports and meet organizations and many community members. The event will take place on April 6, 2024 at the Aliso Pico Recreation Center and registration is required to participate.

Play Equity Fund is an organization which funds and scales effective and impactful programs, including school-based sports, coaching education, infrastructure development and juvenile justice programs. 

The Play Equity Fund will invest in research and increase data collection, evaluations, assessments and information sharing to advance solutions that work to close the Play Equity Gap. 

The organization also focuses on bringing the transformational power of sport and play to all children, regardless of their race, gender, zip code or socioeconomic status. The Play Equity Fund is the only nonprofit focused solely on play equity as a social justice issue. It was established by The LA84 Foundation as its 501(c)3 public charity partner.

All youth participants must have a parent or a guardian present at the time of the event check-in, to complete the registration.

Time: 10: 00 - 1:00 pm
