Groups work together on southeast Atlanta playground

The southeast Atlanta community has teamed up to build a new playground at Dobbs Elementary School, which hasn’t had a playground for its students in more than 10 years.

The playground will be primarily funded by the Humana Foundation, and it will be created from drawings and recommendations by students and adults.

The project is one of more than 50 playgrounds being built nationwide by organizations including Humana, the Humana Foundation and KaBOOM!, according to Atlanta Public Schools.
