Play Action International

At Play Action International, we work in disadvantaged communities across East Africa, focusing on enhancing children’s learning, development and access to education through play. We use the power of play to transform the lives of children in hospitals, settlement camps and poverty-affected schools through our tailored programmes. Working in partnership with local people, we are able to provide a community with a play programme that provides a long-lasting and deep-rooted impact.

Importance of Play

Importance of Play
Play in the early years of life has a long-lasting impact on a child’s health, well-being, and development. Studies have shown that early play experiences improve a child’s physical growth, their capacity for learning, chances of finishing school and future employability.

David’s story

David’s story
David, whose story you hear in the appeal, is just one of the many children who have not had access to the developmental benefits associated with play.

Play for Trauma

Play for Trauma
Play provides a wealth of therapeutic opportunities which makes it perhaps one of the simplest, most impactful and cost-effective interventions for trauma-affected children.
