Inspiring the Progress of Humanity through the Power of Play
Fundraising for our 7th Life Skills for Sustainable Happiness Pilgrimage
From January 18th to April 18th, 2025 we will be checking up on our Life Skills for Sustainable Happiness Programs in Ghana and Guatemala and training a new group of 150 Mental Health and Happiness Fun-Raising Teachers.
Update (11.13.2024)
​
We trained 100 teachers in Ghana and 50 in Guatemala. This year alone, our program has reached over 5,000 kids.
​
​
One teacher shared this story: "Anderson has family issues at home and he would often get into fights at school and struggled to make friends. After I implemented the happiness program with my class, Anderson rarely fights anymore, he has made friends, and now enjoys coming to school."
​
This is the power of our program and we are going to equip 150 new teachers with the skills to drastically change the trajectory of kids' lives.

In Honor of and in Dedication to
This Life Skills Play Pilgrimage is in honor of and dedicated to three dear friends of our Founder, who have transitioned from this plane to the next. Each friend inspired A Primally Playful Foundation in different ways. If you'd like to dedicate your gift to someone special, we will add them to the wall of dedication.
Thomas Burton
Tom loved & was fascinated by people. He taught me the importance of community & that our greatest moments of joy come from our relationships with others. This is one of the most important lessons we teach on during these Play Pilgrimages & why Tom's spirit lives on through our work.
Alexandre Dumas
I served in the Peace Corps with Alex. We both served at orphanages. He was one of the most positive people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. We would brainstorm ways to help others be positive. Alex lives on through the work of A Primally Playful Foundation, we teach what he embodied.
Greg Thompson
Greg was a good friend and professional mentor. He taught me to have people experience whatever it is I am trying to teach. He, more than anyone, inspired our pedagogy revolving around experiential learning & I know he's there with us as we're teaching these workshops.
With your gift you will become a trajectory changer. Doing your part in helping change the trajectory of the mental and physical health of humans.
