Nike Community Impact Fund Powers Play in Parkrose

  1. Updates

We’re proud to share that Playworks Pacific Northwest is a 2025 Nike Community Impact Fund Grantee!

Thanks to this incredible support, we’re fueling the power of play in the Parkrose School District. This grant is helping provide high-quality summer programming that keeps kids physically active, builds essential skills, and fosters fun, meaningful engagement while school is out.

Nike employees on the NCIF committee visited Parkrose Middle School to see the impact firsthand. After learning new games on the playground and showing their full-body Rock, Paper, Scissors moves, our visitors sat down with six of our amazing Junior Coaches. These youth leaders shared their experiences and reflected on what leadership means to them while enjoying lunch (and some sweet Nike swag!).

We are so grateful to partners like Nike, who are helping to bring safe, healthy play to kids across our community.
