Blossom Montessori Preschool has been given the approval to install a permanent play structure at Peter Greer Elementary.
Single mom Bryanna Lemiski said the existing playground has been vandalized for years and she believes there isn鈥檛 a safe structure for preschool-aged children like hers to use.
She has started a GoFundMe page to raise the money grants won鈥檛 cover.
Lemiski noted the preschool owner Tanya Bunnah looked at funding the playground herself, but it wasn鈥檛 feasible. 鈥淲e鈥檙e in a very unique, tight situation because there is not a lot of funding; we don鈥檛 qualify for daycare funding, we don鈥檛 qualify for independent preschool funding because we鈥檙e on district land,鈥� she said.
The has a fundraising goal of $50,000, of which less than $2,000 has been raised in over a month.
鈥淎nywhere between $50,000 and $60,000 it鈥檚 going to cost,鈥� Lemiski said. 鈥淚t would mean the world if people could come together and help support this initiative because it is for the whole community.鈥�
