In a ceremony held recently, PlayTime, the fastest-growing online gaming platform in the country, through its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) arm PlayTime CARES (Community Action, Relief, Empowerment, and Sustainability), is thrilled to announce a partnership with Gawad Kalinga Community Development Foundation, Inc. (GK), a renowned non-profit organization dedicated to eradicating poverty and uplifting communities across the Philippines.
Through this collaboration, PlayTime will be sponsoring a series of PlayTime Playgrounds, a play area for the kids and their families, to be placed inside each GK community. In addition, each playground will also be equipped with Obstacle Course Racing (OCR) setups designed to promote active play, resilience, and community engagement among children and families. The playgrounds will be open to all and are designed to foster inclusivity and excitement for people of all ages.
For this year, the program will start with three locations: the City of Cavite, Quezon City, and Cebu City. Starting 2025, more PlayTime Playgrounds will be constructed nationwide. This initiative aligns with PlayTime’s commitment to making a positive social impact by fostering safe and accessible play spaces that encourage physical fitness and community unity.
As a leading organization in poverty alleviation, Gawad Kalinga works to build empowered communities through various initiatives, from livelihood programs to education and housing. PlayTime is honored to work alongside GK in this project to extend positive, enduring change to communities across the country.
“Partnering with Gawad Kalinga allows us to give back to the Filipino community by building spaces that inspire joy, connection, and physical health,” says Jay Sabale, Senior PR Manager of PlayTime. “We hope that these playgrounds will help preserve the history and culture of physical play, teach children the values of teamwork, endurance, problem-solving skills, and provide them with a safe environment to gather.”
