The said project aims to raise funds to support the TUKOD Foundation and Creative Kids' advocacy of promoting welfare of the Filipino children. Through play, children learn more and live more. A playground will certainly brighten the lives of the childen and will bring them hope and joy in their souls. The said playground will be 3-hectare land which will cater 7,500 children in Calauan Laguna.

It has also become the medium to help raise as much as possible for the playground project cost from different donors — whether from large companies or modest donations from individuals, and to also donate UNICEF's own projects.
